I place the call but dial your number wrong
Could have been an accident or exactly what I meant
Those city lights don't seem to shine so bright
At least not tonight
These streets don't walk the way they used to
'Cos Toronto misses you
The big T.O., you packed your bags to go
Two years isn't long unless you feel you don't belong
Avenue road, hoping the bar wouldn't close
As the sentimental pose
I had a plan I thought was foolproof
But Toronto misses you
I didn't think you'd miss those traffic jams
Or the concrete
But what about the places we'd meet
Down on College St.
You were bored with me & the lakeshore
Playing out your big-time dreams on the Danforth music scene
I suppose the nightlife has its ghosts
Those who lost hope
These streets don't walk the way they used to
'Cos Toronto misses you
Yeah Toronto misses you
Yeah Toronto misses you
