Of course I picked a rainy night

To try to find our past

The street lights all were flickering

The leaves were falling fast



I walked down the winding road

Looked up through the trees

And I saw the corner window

That you once shared with me



It was Old College Avenue

And in the time of having you

I remember it as if it were today



The tiny room and the single bed

Though the tangled trails of time

Have led us far astray

The membrance seems to stay



And through all the roads

That led me on

And through all the years

That you've been gone

I have found that it would never go away



It was Old College Avenue

And in the time of having you

I remember it as if it were today



That fall turned into winter

The winter into spring

And all the while, you led me through

The sweet awakening



But summer never came that year

It's what you went to find

And you took my future with you

And you left your past behind



It was Old College Avenue

And in the time of having you

I remember it as if it were today



The tiny room and the single bed

Though the tangled trails of time

Have led us far astray

The membrance seems to stay



And through all the roads

That led me on

And through all the years

that you've been gone

I have found that it would never go away



It was Old College Avenue

And in the time of having you

I remember it as if it were today

I remember you

As if

It were

Today
