[Verse 1]
Walking down Bloor Street
I make the right on Yonge
This old town and I’ve gone
Round for round
But this is where I’m from
I can feel the wind coming off the lake
It cuts right to the bone
A crooked smile grows on my face
‘Cause now I know I’m home
[Refrain]
She whispers, baby, baby, walk slow
Baby, baby, don’t go, oh no…
[Verse 2]
Her skyline is a friend of mine
And she’s shining bright tonight
A gentle snow falls from the sky
So I pull my jacket tight
Searching for a cigarette
I fumble for a light
Steel on steel
I can hear the wheels
Of a streetcar pass me by
[Refrain]
She whispers, baby, baby, walk slow
Baby, baby, don’t go, oh no…
[Verse 3]
When this city talks to me
She tells the story of my life
Walking through her shadows
On a cold winter’s night
And I can feel that wind
Coming off the lake
It cuts right to the bone
And that crooked smile
Grows on my face
‘Cause now I know I’m home
[Refrain]
She whispers, baby, baby, walk slow
Baby, baby, don’t go, oh no
She whispers, baby, baby, walk slow
Baby, baby, don’t go, don’t go
