| [00:14.06] |
Sitting in a motel on the outskirts of Raton |
| [00:21.17] |
How the years have flown |
| [00:24.30] |
Since Townes passed through these hills alone |
| [00:28.40] |
I got someone who loves me |
| [00:31.90] |
But it's too late to phone |
| [00:35.64] |
I wanna ride this road forever |
| [00:40.72] |
And I'm dying to go home |
| [00:45.24] |
|
| [01:00.97] |
Out there on the interstate the hurryin' of the cars |
| [01:08.52] |
High above room 28 the swirling of the stars |
| [01:15.40] |
And I draw the vinyl curtains like a veil across my skin |
| [01:24.61] |
I turn the bedside lamp down |
| [01:27.99] |
And I let my shadows in |
| [01:32.53] |
|
| [01:33.22] |
Cause I feel so full and so empty handed |
| [01:40.17] |
In a world so cruel I don't think I understand it |
| [01:47.42] |
Are we still the fools |
| [01:51.10] |
Who don't know right from wrong |
| [01:56.50] |
Here at midnight on Raton? |
| [02:03.13] |
|
| [02:18.68] |
I find a crumpled napkin and I fumble for a pen |
| [02:25.38] |
Chase a fleeting moment like it was my long lost friend |
| [02:32.76] |
And I curl up 'neath the blankets and dream until the dawn |
| [02:41.52] |
But come morning I'll be through these hills and gone |
| [02:48.76] |
Come morning I'll be through these hills and gone |
| [02:55.46] |
|
