Barbara
I'm down in the flats
Where the life once was--now it's a ghost town
Down an unmapped street
I'm going to a bar that's long gone

Boarded houses
Dropping by on old friends already dead
It's dusk
No buzzing streetlights overhead

Barbara
Do you remember
The times we had here?
Barbara
Can we just go back
Rewind the years?

There's no going back
The Flats are history
And in my absence
No one's missed me

So long, Barbara
It's been swell
Guess there's no use
To sit and dwell
