Laneways Songtext
von Peachfield

I remember my walk
To primary school
Down two laneways
Past a football field and a creek
Left at the scouthall
Before the netball court
Then down another laneway
You′d be sitting there on your wall

We walked everywhere back then
And every detail was ours
When I'm driving back that way
I don′t even know which house it was


The nun who taught scripture
Lived on your street too
We'd mind our language
Afraid that our voices she knew
Jesus walked with us
Or so she said
We'd have shaved off a block
If he′d boosted us onto her shed

We walked everywhere back then
And every detail was ours
When I′m driving back that way
I don't even know which house it was

The first one they blocked off
Was on your side of school
Needles and longnecks
Too many noise complaint calls
We jumped the fences
For the first couple of weeks
Until you found the embers
The worn clothing and the car seat

We walked everywhere back then
And every detail was ours
When I′m driving back that way
I don't even know which house it was
I don′t even know which house it was
I don't even know which house it was
