lyrics

These scratches on my guitar came from one night in Montreal
where we sang and we drank until all stories were told
It was long ago but just yesterday.
And this tear in my eye came from one night in Montreal
where you lied and I cried and we fell against the wall
It was long ago but just yesterday.

Oh Montreal walking from my place to your place
past three story walk ups with wrought iron railings
Montreal where we began to become
who we are here today
from that stay when we were twenty one

Oh Montreal walking from my place to your place
past warm bagel ovens and hasidic faces
Montreal where we began to become
who we are here today
from that stay when we were twenty one

This smile on my face came from one night in Montreal
where the cops showed up and stayed while we played rock 'n roll
It was long ago but just yesterday.
These scratches on my guitar came from one night in Montreal
where we sang and we drank until all stories were told
It was long ago but just yesterday.

Oh Montreal walking from my place to your place
past Schwartz's meat deli and great busking spaces
Montreal where we began to become
who we are here today
from that stay when we were twenty one
