Lyrics The Innocence Mission

The Innocence Mission

Smalltown Blues

Lately the conversations drag me down

The circle full of friends just make my head spin round & round & round and

There's always someone waiting in the hall outside

And every time you leave the wronger telephone line...saying

How's she going to make it own her own now that he's gone

And I can't take this smalltown blues

I'm tired of being lonely, living without you

And I can't take this smalltown blues

I'm tired of living without you

You're always far away putting feathers in your cap

And business is good, but honey, that's not where I'm mad

There's always someone waiting on the street outside

And everytime you leave the wronger telephone line...saying

Now's she's running on her own, he wont be home

And I can't take this smalltown blues

I'm tired of being lonely, living without you

And I can't take this smalltown blues

I'm tired of living without you

And I can't take this smalltown blues

No, I'm tired of being lonely, lonely, living without you

And I can't take this smalltown blues

You know I'm tired of living without you

They're talking about you

They're saying that you've gone, tell me it's not true

I need you by my side, my side
