lyrics
Winter has come back ‘round
Its time
For me to skip this town and drive
The years been good to me
I Don’t
Want to tempt catastrophe by sticking ‘round.
White lines & sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
I’m going to start a band
And drive
All over this wide land
I’ll be singing songs
Forget what I’m runnin’ from
And I hope you’ll wait for me
back east
You’ll keep the light on there
And the sheets on our bed made and clean for me.
White lines and sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
You are delicate
And you’re the one that turns me on
But chasing the horizon
Aint no way to rest your bones
Before you know it
I’ll be coming home
White lines and sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
Blue days and black nights
I’ll search until I’ve found it
Forever mine
I’ll be home before you know it.
Its time
For me to skip this town and drive
The years been good to me
I Don’t
Want to tempt catastrophe by sticking ‘round.
White lines & sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
I’m going to start a band
And drive
All over this wide land
I’ll be singing songs
Forget what I’m runnin’ from
And I hope you’ll wait for me
back east
You’ll keep the light on there
And the sheets on our bed made and clean for me.
White lines and sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
You are delicate
And you’re the one that turns me on
But chasing the horizon
Aint no way to rest your bones
Before you know it
I’ll be coming home
White lines and sunlight
You cant hit a moving target
Blue days and black nights
I’ll search until I’ve found it
Forever mine
I’ll be home before you know it.
