GOING BACK TO PERRYTOWN

Going back to Perrytown
Not gonna let the past get me down
I’m not the same girl I used to be
I won’t live by a memory

Twenty years gone by, that’s a lot of time
I’ve grown stronger, learned how to draw the line
I used to let myself be pushed and pulled around
In another time back in Perrytown

Chorus:

Now I’m wondering why I want to return
To the place where I was broken, I was burned
I used to be so sure I’d lived it all down
What is there left to prove in Perrytown

Chorus:

Woke up this morning with a pounding in my head
The past is in the future, can’t pretend that is dead
But there’s no denying, I won’t be whole until I go

Chorus:

c 1993, Barbara Martin
