歌手:Little Hands of Asphalt
专辑:《Leap Years》

Once again the bravest toad
From rainy ditch to Thunder Road
But always blinded
by the lights
So forget about our past romances
Raise you glass to second chances
'Cause you're gonna
give me one tonight

The dials are moving in on nine
I'm leaving all my friends behind
Hoping to find a better hand
And if my half heart
is good to me
I'll stream my words
more consciously
And maybe
then you'll understand
That the stack of cardboard boxes
Where we've kept our misery
Would make a nice bonfire
That we could gather 'round tonight
But it's risky fuel to burn
And this is shrouded in mystery
The elections over I know
You voted easy love
My shirt says Replacements
Yours it has a statement
That's where we start falling apart
So I'll be in the far back
Hanging with the pack
Waiting for the band to start
Oh those loose affiliations
Are as shallow as they seem
But they're a proper sound
For the melting ground
And I'm gonna
keep them company
'Til we're swallowed by the sea
Which comes as no suprise
The waters on the rise
And I'm leaving pictures behind:
Eager fingers down your spine
Nothing was put on the line
Trading dark thoughts for white lies

Swerving off the road again
I'm looking for my worst of friends
Sure I was blinded by the lights
Forgetting about second chances
I raise my glass to true romances
'Cause I think I lost one tonight
So until we meet again my dear
In some blissful in-between
I hope your nights are long
so you forget these songs
I promise I won't ponder
on the possibilities
Like growing old and bitter
together
