Just like it's good to find a person to love, it's good to find places to love.

lyrics

O! Regina, nothin's fina
as I'm concerned
These sidewalks we built memories
the lies and truth diverge

It was here
They brought Louis down
It was here
That Roger Ing is in the ground

O! Queen City
You're so pretty with lights off
and in the sunlight
burning eyelids
on the corners that we talked

It was here
We watched the first snowfall
It was here
You left for Montreal

I will miss you when I'm gone
They'll put my body in you're ground

O! Sweet capital
You're palpable and great.
The days I loved you most
were those I spoke of you in hate

It was here
They beat the Trekkers down
It was here
that Tommy Douglas walked the ground
It was here
Where you first smiled at me
It was here
We packed up for NYC
It was here
That the CCF took flight
It was here
We danced in dark Wascana night

It was here
We jumped from roofs and ran a lot
It was here
The queen would wave her hand at us
it was here
that Big Bear would take the blame
It was here
That John A. laid his tracks in shame
It was here
We kissed at the Ledge library
it was here
I almost lost my teeth

O! pile of bones
you're remarkable alone
I lived just off Vic(toria avenue)
but every street I called my home.
