"Ashton Lane" lyrics

The close lies empty as I leave for one last time
I run my hand down the oak banister and whisper that she's looking fine
I close the door and say the pleasure was all mine
Then turn away

For all the memories I carry down these stairs
You could offer me a world of riches and I promise you I wouldn't care
We tramped these streets like they were ours and we were theirs
Until today

And we hardly felt the rain
As we walked down Ashton Lane
I told you this would never last
Cause good times come and go so fast
And I can't say for sure they'll come again
Cause we were younger when we walked down Ashton Lane

In every story that we wrote within these walls
We played a token part but the end was never ours to call
Now the time has come when the credits roll and the curtain falls
We say goodbye

And we hardly felt the rain
As we walked down Ashton Lane
I told you this would never last
Cause good times come and go so fast
And I can't say for sure they'll come again
Cause we were younger when we walked

And we hardly felt the rain
As we walked down Ashton Lane
We left those glories in the past
Cause our times came and went so fast
And no one knows if it'll come again
Cause we were younger when we walked down Ashton Lane
