The Lilac Time - Streetcorner lyrics

Street corner Where I courted her Where two streets meet And paths cross in paving stone Oh street lamp Shine through seasons Made us brighter World around seem darker Street corner Where I bored her With my schemes And dreams of going somewhere Oh heartland Where our swan sang It's goodbye forever For further is but nearer to you Where do we have to run To when all the love is done I lived in a street when I was young We never did more than feel Although I was your friend You never thought I'd be the boy That you would meet So you gave your love To someone else and I slipped away Now I know I never will Then I thought That I'd get back with you someday But I was wrong So wrong It's strange that one can be so wrong So wrong So long...
