Nanci Griffith - Not My Way Home Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • On Grafton Street at Christmas time
  • The elbows push you 'round
  • This is not my place of memories
  • I'm a stranger in this town
  • The faces seem familiar
  • And I know those songs they're playin'
  • But I close my eyes and find myself
  • Five thousand miles away
  • (chorus)
  • It's funny how my world goes round without you
  • You're the one thing I never thought
  • I could live without
  • I just found this smile to think about you
  • You're a Saturday night
  • Far from the madding crowd
  • The buskers sing by candle light
  • In front of Bewleys Store
  • And a young nun offers me a chair
  • At a table by the door
  • And I feel compelled to tell her
  • Of the sisters that we knew
  • How when they lit their candles
  • I'd say a prayer for you
  • (repeat chorus)
  • The church bells ring for holy hour
  • I'm back out in the rain
  • It's been twenty years or more
  • Since I last said your name
  • I hear you live near Dallas now
  • In a house out on the plains
  • Why Grafton Street brought you to mind
  • I really can't explain
  • (repeat chorus)
  • On Grafton Street at Christmas time
  • The elbows push you 'round
  • All I carry now are memories
  • I'm a stranger to this town
