From the musical: A Tour of the Ruins
Book, Music & Lyrics by Michael Ogborn

lyrics

THERE’S A PILE OF DUST,
THAT I’VE COME TO TRUST,
WHERE THE RUBBER MEETS THE ROAD,
YOU CAN FEEL IT COMIN’ AT YOU
ON A BREEZE.
IN A GENTLE GUST,
YOU CAN TASTE THE RUST
OFF A MIGHTY HEAVY LOAD,
THAT WOULD BRING
A WEAKER NATION TO ITS’ KNEES.
I DON’T KNOW WHERE
WE’LL ALL BE TOMORROW,
BUT I THINK
I KNOW WHERE WE ARE,
AND WE’VE COME FAR.
THOUGH SUCCUMB I MUST
TO MY WANDER LUST,
WHEREVER I MAY ROAM,
I PROMISE YOU
I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER,
THE PLACES I USED TO CALL HOME.
I PROMISE YOU I’LL-

I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER…
ALL OF THE GOOD THINGS,
ALL OF THE BAD THINGS.
ALL OF THE WRONG THINGS,
ALL OF THE RIGHT THINGS.
ALL OF THE BLACK THINGS,
ALL OF THE WHITE THINGS,
OH, TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
OH, TO REMEMBER EVERYTHING.



THERE’S AN EXTRA KEY
AND A CUP OF TEA
WHERE THE PHONE HUNG ON THE WALL
AND A STORY YOU’LL
FOREVER CALL TO MIND.
IT’S A FALLING TEAR
IN A GLASS OF BEER
AT A PHOTO DOWN THE HALL,
ON A KITCHEN TABLE YOU’D
NEVER LEAVE BEHIND.
I DON’T KNOW WHY
WE KEEP ON MOVIN’
WHY DON’T WE ALL JUST STAY?
I CAN’T SAY…
BUT THERE’S A GUIDING LIGHT
IN THE DARKEST NIGHT,
WHEREVER YE MAY ROAM,
WITH A PROMISE THAT
WE’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER
THE PLACES WE USED TO CALL HOME.
I PROMISE YOU I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER
(I’LL ALWAYS REMEMBER)
THE PLACES I USED TO CALL HOME.
