I didn't know when I'd see you again, Four years loved and lost, Right here. Every time I leave, I leave a part of myself behind. My old self lived here. Can I learn to love you again? I watched lives get lost living here, I lost friends and family here. I cried and screamed here. I watched people get married, I saw relationships begin. I laughed and smiled here. No matter how far, You never leave my heart. Life took a turn, And now I'm here. I'm ready for my next move, I can see myself growing old here. But I also dream of leaving here. The time has come, The streets glow in the winter sun. Auld Reekie, how I missed you. It's good to be back with you.

Auld Reekie
I didn't know when I'd see you again, Four years loved and lost, Right here. Every time I leave, I leave a part of myself behind. My old self lived here. Can I learn to love you again? I watched lives get lost living here, I lost friends and family here. I cried and screamed here. I watched people get married, I saw relationships begin. I laughed and smiled here. No matter how far, You never leave my heart. Life took a turn, And now I'm here. I'm ready for my next move, I can see myself growing old here. But I also dream of leaving here. The time has come, The streets glow in the winter sun. Auld Reekie, how I missed you. It's good to be back with you.
