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.
