Words & Music by A.Hill

The house is full of boxes with colour-coded labels
Indicative of their content
I thought these times would last forever but now I'm looking back
I just don't know where 3 years went

Small town, small town
What will you do now that I'm not around?
Small town, small town
Go on without me for now

I've memorised the lines and the dots
That make up every one of your faces
I'm driving down the lines, past the dots
That mark all of my favourite places

I'm trying not to shed a tear
But there wasn't a dry eye in the house
When it happened this time last year
I'm still here...

But I'm not sticking around
So go on without me small town
I miss walking around, alone
Down those streets that I called home

Why is the lines and Dots song not on the CD? o.O

[hilbilly87]

Hey - first of all, thank you for all your lovely comments - you're too kind! I'm really glad you like my songs though :)

I'm not sure I understand this question though... Lines And Dots is the name of the CD - but there isn't a song called that. If you mean the song in this video, well that is on the CD :) x anthony

I love this.

Nostalgic, but not too bitter, just enough sorrow.

Great.

[Drownrats]

You're what I do my homework to.

Your pretty little voice makes taking fifteen horrid pages of notes bearable.

Thank you. :)

[AJGROS02]

Dude, this was seriously amazing. I loved it. Keep doin what you do :)

[UptightSue]
