Mayor gave me the key to the city The welcome wagon had already appeared But again I'll be packing and leaving For it's plain now that you once lived here It may be that I'll never forget you 'Cause your love and love lives everywhere Could it be that I'll always be sayin' I've gotta go now for you once lived here I see your face in the cool of the evening I hear your voice in each breeze cloud and clear Oh there must be a town without your memories But not this one 'cause you once lived here No not this one 'cause you once lived here
