Lyrics
My Side of Town
On my side of town there's a rumbling train
Every three AM shakes my window pane
On her side of town there're security gates
Guard that checks the license plates
CHORUS: I can see her at night as I lay dreaming
Her kisses sweet as the wine we'd been drinking
But love she never came around
It brought her down
My side of town
She told me baby "you're my only one"
About a week before we were done
She threw a party and the rumors flew
And I found out what I thought was true
CHORUS:
On my side of town the dreams die young
Like a bullet fired from a stolen gun
I knelt by my friend as the sirens cried
He whispered "tell my baby good-bye"
CHORUS:
