"Glenfern (Acoustic)" lyrics

"Glenfern (Acoustic)"

When I go walking in my neighbourhood
I wonder how I even got here
It seems so long since those Hamilton days
And the first house we bought together
And the online street view used to crack me up
It was you standing in your slippers
On the front porch with the Siamese cat
But it's not up there anymore

And I, I will always be thankful for it

I was so lucky to be under your wing
But I think I went and outgrew 'em
Now when I find myself looking back
I think of all the cool shit that happened
Like, we had a tour bus with a bed in the back
We bought a rock and roll dream it was total crap, well
We toured the world and we played on TV
We met some of our heroes, it almost killed me

And I, I will always be thankful for it
And I, I will always be thankful for it

I guess some things we should have said
'Cause it was too late when we did
Like
You changed too much
You didn't change
And I am sorry for everything

Early days we were playing the Horseshoe
And I was drinking too much whiskey
You always knew how to set me straight
Even though I didn't want to hear it

And I, I will always be thankful for it
And I, I will always be thankful for it
And I, I will always be thankful for it
And I, I will always be thankful for it
