“Greensboro Days” (C. Stamey, published by ShangMoto Songs BMI, administered by Rough Trade Publishing)

I should be going home right now
the sun burns our shadows to the ground
but it’s so hard to leave this town

you’re sound asleep beside me, and yet
you smile in that way I can’t forget
the rain starts to paint the canvas wet . . .

Greensboro days of endless summer
A northbound train rolls through the town
Greensboro days, the leaves
are starting to fall down, and
I am New York bound

I should have written you a letter, I should have
tried to make some sense of it, but
nothing could make this better, no excuses or sentiment . . .

Greensboro days of endless summer
A northbound train, that mournful sou-ou-ound
Greensboro days, the leaves
are calico and brown, and
I am New York-bound

Greensboro days of endless summer
A northbound train rolls out of town
Greensboro days, the leaves
are covering the ground, and
I am New York-bound

(Greensboro days . . . Greensboro days)
Greensboro days, the leaves
are calico and brown, and
I am New York bound, yes
I am New York bound
