Kane's River - This Little Town lyrics

There are daffodils blooming Out by the front stairs And the sweet smell of lilacs Seems to hang in the air All through the oak trees Sunlight makes shadows That dance on the ground Another spring day is well on its way In this little town He leaves the house early And he walks through his door Flips the sign in the window And sweeps the old wooden floor Day after day he puts on a smile For the folks coming 'round That's just what you do especially when You live in this little town Oh, but late in the evening When he's all by himself He takes down the picture That sits on the shelf He still hears her voice, Remembers her touch As he slowly sits down Someday he'll be with her And won't have to live in this little town He thinks of the old days When they were still young And the best times together Were still yet to come But early last winter the angels Came calling and soon he had found It's not much like home when You're living alone in this little town There are daffodils blooming Out by the front stairs The robins are singing But he doesn't care Because it's easier knowing They'll be together up there in the end When his race is run, spring will have come, It starts over again Oh, but late in the evening When he's all by himself He takes down the picture That sits on the shelf He still hears her voice, Remembers her touch As he slowly sits down Someday he'll be with her And won't have to live in this little town Someday he'll be with her In this little town
