Granville Street, Dorchester, Mass

At the end of Granville Street

There’s a place I know,
Cedar Grove Cemetery, where the memories flow.
Lived on the second floor of the De Vico’s, hey,
My son with his Daisy rifle, laughing out to play.
Girlfriends came and went like the summer breeze,
Old movies on the TV, bringing back the ease.

[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to those golden days,
Where laughter filled the air in so many ways.
With my long hair down and the songs in my heart,
We were young and free, not knowing we’d part.
Roy’s Pizza was the best for me,
Those simple little moments were pure ecstasy.

[Verse 2]
The trolley rattled by on tracks that knew our ways,
And I worked at McDonald’s, serving fries in a daze.
But in the quiet mornings, I’d write my dreams away,
With my powder blue Beetle parked right in the fray.
The radio played all our favorite tunes,
Under the sun or beneath the silver spoons.

[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to those golden days,
Where laughter filled the air in so many ways.
With my long hair down and the songs in my heart,
We were young and free, not knowing we’d part.
Roy’s Pizza was the best for me,
Those simple little moments were pure ecstasy.

[Bridge]
Now the world spins fast, but I hold onto the past,
Every laugh, every tear, every moment that lasts.
I see my son outside, just like I used to be,
With dreams in his eyes, crafting his own spree.
Oh, how time flies, but the love remains,
From Granville Street memories, I’ll never refrain.

[Chorus]
Oh, take me back to those golden days,
Where laughter filled the air in so many ways.
With my long hair down and the songs in my heart,
We were young and free, not knowing we’d part.
Roy’s Pizza was the best for me,
Those simple little moments were pure ecstasy.

[Outro]
So here’s to those times, with a smile and a sigh,
At the end of Granville, under the vast sky.
Cedar Grove watching over, all the love we knew,
Forever in my heart, Granville’s spirit shines through.
