In this old town I grew up strong
In this old town I waited
For the right times

And the weight to carry on
In this old town I waited

I waited for sympathy
How she kept my longing shaded
She kept my body aching for so long
In this old town I waited for so long

She carelessly awaited every night
And carelessly awaiting every time
It's this old town I hated
But this old town has made me what I am

I've got her solitary madness coming in
I've got her solitary madness coming in
It's everything I waited for so long

This old town I grew up strong
And know her tender touch instructed me
That nothing comes as easy as it goes
This old town has taught me all she knows

She carelessly awaites me every night
And carelessly awaiting every time
And this old town has made me proud

I've got her solitary madness coming in
Solitary madness coming in
It's everything I waited for so long 

Yeah, oh bless that everlasting grace
Cause it's this old town like anything
This old town will give you what you gave
And this old town has made me strong
I've got her solitary madness coming in

Solitary madness coming in
It's everything I waited for so long 
For so long
