"Boom Town" lyrics

Just like a long kiss, on a silver screen
Was I right in the sunset, just a short sweet dream
It fades into nothin'

Two hearts on the run, in a place called love
Chasin' fool's gold, in a temporary rush of forever
Man, it was somethin'

Yeah it used to be, you could walk around here
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
Yeah it used to be, but you wouldn't know it now
Used to be a boom town
Used to be a boom town

This place gets dark, when the sun sinks low
There's abandoned streets, and the memories come and go
Like a tumbleweed

Every door is closed, every window's boarded up
If these walls could talk, they'd talk about love
And you and me

Well it used to be, you could walk around here
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
Yeah it used to be, but you wouldn't know it now
Used to be a boom town
Used to be a boom town

Yeah it used to be, you could walk around here
And there was life and laughter, and a song in your ear
Yeah it used to be, but you wouldn't know it now
Used to be a boom town
Used to be a boom town
Used to be a boom town
Used to be a boom town
