This Town Still Talks About You - Natalie Hemby

Seems like there’s not a day that goes by

I don’t hear your name around here

Stories of who you were echo like a soft whisper in my ear

Street corner conversations

Reminiscin' with the waitress

Oh it never gets old

Since you moved on from here

Time’s moved on in years

And I wonder if you know

Oh this town still talks about you

Like you never left

Hidden sounds in cracked sidewalks and church pews

How could we forget?

You were so loved, you were one of our own

And it’s never been the same since you’ve been gone

Oh this town still talks about you

Heard that you used to work summers

As a checkout clerk at the IGA

Walk down the high school halls

Your picture’s on the wall in a trophy case

And all those jokes you tell

They’re alive and well

Down at the barbershop

I guess you hung around

Somethin' to talk about

And I hope it never stops

Oh this town still talks about you

Like you never left

Hidden sounds in cracked sidewalks and church pews

How could we forget?

You were so loved, you were one of our own

And it’s never been the same since you’ve been gone

Oh this town still talks about you

And all those jokes you tell

They’re alive and well

Down at the barbershop

Oh this town still talks about you

Like you never left

Hidden sounds in cracked sidewalks and the church pews

How could we forget?

You were so loved, you were one of our own

And it’s never been the same since you’ve been gone

Oh this town still talks about you
