Gareth Emery - St Mary's

Headed to St mary's, I cross the avenue
The last time I came here
I'd just turned twenty-two
I should be a hero in this town
But that's alright, I'm keeping my head down
It all started here
Walking on a road like this
Singing at The Joiners
 bowing down to Matt Le Tiss
Move like a suburban hurricane
Red and white still running through my veins

Tell the city that I love her
And I miss her ways
Only fools hold on to the glory days
When memories fade and friends move on
I'll never forget where I come from

All I've got are memories
That's good enough for me
Looking past The Old Dell, remember '93
Rewind on the radio again
T-shirts "6 - 3" all over them
Post relegation following the northern lights
Foreign destinations, California in my sights
A thousand airports and I feel the same
Red and white still running through my veins

Tell the city that I love her
And I miss her ways
Only fools hold on to the glory days
When memories fade and friends move on
I'll never forget where I come from

Walking through the suburbs and the
World I left behind
Looking for your headstone
'06 still on my mind
Don't think that I felt this way before
Decades passed still knocking at my door
It's way past the sunset
I'm feeling kinda strange
All kind of drinking
Some things they never changed
9 pm and it's time to board my train
Another year 'til I'm out here again

Tell the city that I love her
And I miss her ways
Only fools hold on to the glory days
When memories fade and friends move on
I'll never forget where I come from
