Just Like Downtown - Carrie Newcomer[00:00:00]

I grew up on an island[00:00:08]

Somewhere near Chicago[00:00:10]

Learned how to talk rough[00:00:12]

Just like downtown[00:00:14]

You could drive to the lake[00:00:16]

And it sure seemed to me[00:00:18]

It smelled like fresh water[00:00:20]

But it felt like the sea[00:00:22]

That's right it's so long now[00:00:24]

You cannot fight this thing any old how[00:00:28]

You can run fast you can try so hard[00:00:32]

But you can't shake the ache or the lake of[00:00:36]

Who you are[00:00:39]

There was nothing to do[00:00:44]

But to shut up and drive[00:00:46]

To the water down the backroads[00:00:48]

To the south and east sides[00:00:50]

Some girls got through high school[00:00:52]

Some never will[00:00:55]

Some walked with a hunger[00:00:56]

They never would fill[00:00:58]

That's right it's so long now[00:01:01]

You cannot fight this thing any old how[00:01:05]

You can run fast you can try so hard[00:01:08]

But you can't shake the ache or the lake of[00:01:12]

Who you are[00:01:16]

You can cough out the city[00:01:21]

You can change your old clothes[00:01:23]

You can soften your accent[00:01:25]

So nobody knows[00:01:27]

But whenever I'm honest[00:01:28]

Something in me[00:01:31]

Still looks for fresh water[00:01:33]

That feels like the sea[00:01:35]

That's right it's so long now[00:01:37]

You cannot fight this thing any old how[00:01:41]

You can run fast you can try so hard[00:01:45]

But you can't shake the ache or the lake of[00:01:49]

Who you are[00:01:53]

I close my eyes[00:02:01]

And I can still see[00:02:07]

That no one forgets[00:02:10]

What it's like to be[00:02:15]

Who it is to be[00:02:17]

If you see me inclining when no one is speaking[00:02:34]

If you sense that I'm wandering somewhere in my mind[00:02:38]

If you listen real close you might hear the whisper[00:02:42]

Or see how the sunsets on the lake could shine and shine[00:02:46]

That's right it's so long now[00:02:51]

You cannot fight this thing any old how[00:02:55]

You can run fast you can try so hard[00:02:59]

But you can't shake the ache or the lake of[00:03:03]

Who you are[00:03:06]

I grew up on an island somewhere near Chicago[00:03:15]

Learned how to talk tough just like downtown[00:03:19]
