Spring street

I was heading down to Spring Street with a suitcase in my hand.
And filled with love and life and grand illusion, I knew you'd understand.
When I left you by the stairwell and your eyes were wet with tears.
Mother, you knew you had to let me go even after all these years.
And we sing Nah, nah-nah-nah, and she said. Nah-nah-nah-nah walk on.
Nah-nah nah, nah, you're alright nah-nah, nah, nah.
And I found myself a new life, and I've been living with some friends.
And we hold on to dreams and live like kings, like the days will never end.
And I left him by the statue and his eyes were filled with tears
Lover you knew you had to let me go even after all these years.
And we sing Nah-nah-nah, nah, and he said
Nah-nah, nah, nah, walk on.
Nah-nah, nah, nah, you're alright nah-nah, nah, nah.
And everything changes, and friends become strangers.
And what we hold so dear slips away.
The past keeps on fading, but I'll never forget you.
It's hard to see that you're a part of me,
Even when we have to say.
Nah-nah, nah, nah, walk on
Nah-nah, nah, nah we sing
Nah-nah, nah, nah, well alright
Nah-nah, nah, nah.
And I moved out of the city to start a family of my own.
And when I look into my daughter's eyes, and I don't feel so alone
And as I walk her down to Spring Street.
She holds on to my hand
Mother, you knew my eyes would be wet with tears and now I understand.
Nah-nah, nah, nah and I said
Nah-nah, nah, nah, walk on
Nah-nah, nah, nah thank you
Nah-nah, nah, nah, walk on. Alright.
Can't hold on.
