Galbraith Street Lyrics - Ron Sexsmith

I woke up on Galbraith Street 

Where the houses stood like twins 

Oh and even though the door's been closed 

I can find a way to get back in 

For in daydreams my mind returns 

Like a ghost upon the hill 

As I knock upon old doors again 

And find my friends all live there still 

So many good times to speak of in a life 

But none compared to the good times I had there 

The world looks so much brighter when 

You believe in every word 

Now I'm holding on to all those years 

Like a tear before it falls unheard 

So many goodbyes to speak of in a life 

But none compared to the goodbyes I said there 

The sun went down on Galbraith Street 

I saw it from my childhood bed 

As the red and gold brick houses stood 

Underneath a crimson sky that bled
