[00:00.00]Wessex Boy - Frank Turner
[00:20.15]Let me tell you all a little story of the things I've found
[00:25.90]Hanging out and drinking with my friends in the cathedral grounds
[00:31.81]And later dodging drunks as we dance along jury street
[00:37.51]As we wander up town to the railway our friends to meet
[00:43.72]There's something about coming back to your hometown again
[00:46.69]Place the where you grew up and where you found firmest your friends
[00:49.20]And though none of them still live here I've got nowhere to go
[00:52.55]I'm a wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
[01:07.91]Let me tell you all a little story of the things I've lost
[01:13.83]Huddling for warmth on the top step of the buttercross
[01:19.79]Sitting on the benches by the bridges riverside
[01:25.87]Of counting down the hours for the buses cause I missed my ride
[01:31.73]There's something about coming back to your hometown again
[01:34.62]The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends
[01:37.41]And though none of them still live here I've got nowhere to go
[01:40.53]I'm a wessex boy a wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
[01:47.37]And one day I will hear this song anonymous and sweet
[01:53.22]Ringing out from a busker's guitar on the ancient city streets
[01:59.45]I'll pause a while and smile before I continue on the lawn
[02:05.43]And somebody else will sing the words and I'll feel like I'm home
[02:34.73]There's something about hometowns that you never can escape
[02:37.59]The triumphs and the tragedies the tortured little fates
[02:40.52]The welling of nostalgia and feeling kind of strange
[02:43.16]Cause despite the little changes yeah this place still feels the same
[02:46.51]There's something about coming back to your hometown again
[02:49.38]The place where you grew up and where you found your firmest friends
[02:52.15]And though none of them still live here got I've nowhere to go
[02:55.65]I'm a wessex boy
[02:58.49]I'm a wessex boy and when I'm here I'm home
