[Verse 1]
The leaves are falling all around
My shoulders take the weight
And the choir sings as lovers curse
Past the church on Market Street
This place that made us what we are
Is changing in our sight
And boarded shops and boarded souls
Hide the emptiness inside

[Chorus]
Mm mm mm, born under the same sun
Mm mm mm, do we stay or do we run?

[Verse 2]
This place of dreams is falling down
The guilty do not hide
As innocents run to hide their shame
And scars come into sight
The deals that end in slash and burn
Light the fire of greed in their eyes
I turn my collar to the biting wind
With a burning desire inside

[Chorus]
Mm mm mm, born under the same sun
Mm mm mm, do we stay or do we run?
[Bridge]
Is this the place we once called home?
We spent those endless days
Where we searched for love and fought and won
And went our separate ways

[Verse 3]
As we walk these streets we knew so well
The humour that once was here
Do we return as strangers now
As memories come clear?
The ashes of deep memory
Still burn and glow inside
Is this place to carry our dreams
Or the place from which we hide?

[Chorus]
Mm mm mm, born under the same sun
Mm mm mm, do we stay or do we run?
Mm mm mm, born under the same sun
Mm mm mm, do we stay or do we run?

[Outro]
Born under the same sun
