INTRO
CENTER STREET (BACK WHEN I BELIEVED IN THEN)
I remember when you saw me walkin down your street time and again
Id pretend I wasnt lookin at ya back when we were 10
back when skies were bluer rivers were for fishin & swimmin in
back when the sun was golden
do u remember how they caught us stealin fountain pens at the 5 & 10
your dad said I was no good & I couldnt see you again
but trees were free for climbing and a buildin a tree house in
and there was maple syrupin'
before the world got too hot & life became a x-files plot
no one killed you with a bio shot'n food was food bugs was not
I believed in CENTER STREET I believed in then
modulate
I believed in then
do you remember vaya con dios delicado skokiaan
we sang in school choir and I'd see you then
I believed in seein you often I believed in then
till we moved 6 states away ...... never see your perfect face again..........
still I wrote you a letter & you wrote me back again I knew it was over b4 it ever began
back when we believed women were women men were men & killin babies was a sin
I remember walkin down your street a newspaper boy of 10
past your house on center street my heart tremblin
God was who I prayed to when I whispered please let me win back when I believed in then
back when I believed in center st back when I believed in then
