Road Signs And Red Lights Lyrics

all across the subways these voices cry the same phrase:

we're leaving in a motor car today

the streetlights in the rearview shoot shadows through the dark blue

just thinking about moving away

i pray: just take me somewhere

and where i go i don't care

the winters in the city bind me so

they bind me so

oh oh



drive, drive me faster

i just threw those early hours

i never want your flowers on my grave

as the last cold rains take these flowers away

oh la la la la la

la la la



it's something about the buildings that leaves me with this sinking feeling

i honestly thought i lost

but point your finger, trace the line back to that time

well, those words were mine

what's coming up behind, a hundred miles of open space

& we're side by side



drive, drive me faster

adjust through those early hours

i never want your flowers on my grave

as the last cold rains take these flowers away



oh drive, drive me faster

adjust through those early hours

i never want your flowers on my grave

as the last cold rains take these flowers away
