Houston Lyrics - Lights From The Chemical Plant - Robert Ellis

When I came here, 

I was a boy 

And now I'm leaving a man 

When I came here I was lost, 

But now I know who I am 

Oh, you helped me understand 

You took me by the hand and you showed me how to fight 

When I was afraid 

Your lights did not fade 

No, they shone through the night 

We shared an appartment 

On the verge of downtown 

Two kids so in love 

But in vain I had found 

Well, when our love turned to rust 

Then all I could trust was the cover of the blanket in the night 

I owe it to you 

I would've come unglued had it not been for the city and her light

From Houston I'm moving tonight 

I've got to pick up and wipe the slate clean 

Oh, Houston I'm losing the fight 

You remind me of too many things 

Well, time takes a toll 

Then you're eyes start to change 

It puts walls all around a soul 

And you feel restless and caged 

Yes, it's happened to me 

I just got to break free from the scene and the places I know 

I just need a new start 

All the seeds they must part 

I am finally ready to go

Oh, Houston I'm losing the fight 

You remind me of too many things 

Oh, Houston I'm moving tonight 

But it does not mean that we'll have to part 

Oh, Houston this is not good-bye 

You will be living inside of my heart 

And when I think back 

On when I called you my home 

I will fill up with pride and love 

I will not forget 

All those nights that I spent 

How your light shone so pretty 

Just a boy in the city
