Light snow falling | |
On the muffler shops and the lumber yards | |
The streets are slick as glass | |
Ditches lined with stranded cars | |
The tow trucks are busy | |
Dealing with the evening rush | |
I might have picked a better day | |
I probably shouldn't expect that much | |
(I'm just) On the outskirts | |
Of an old familiar town | |
With a misty darkness coming down | |
On the fringes | |
Outside looking in | |
She says Well now where you been | |
Didn't expect you back again | |
Trying to get out of the wind | |
Are you now | |
Standing on the doorstep | |
Something doesn't feel the same | |
Strange car in the driveway | |
I guess I really can't complain | |
I wonder should I even knock | |
Or Just head out on my way | |
And It's an awkward moment | |
Staring at the floor | |
Filling up the ashtray | |
(½ chorus) | |
Cold coffee | |
Styrofoam cup from the Stop 'n go | |
Throw it in the floorboard | |
Catch the weather on the radio | |
Freezing rain | |
Continued on through the morning | |
Travelers' advisory | |
I'll give a little more warning next time | |
(I'm just) On the outskirts | |
Of an old familiar town | |
With a misty darkness coming down | |
On the fringes | |
Outside looking in | |
She says Well now where you been | |
Didn't expect you back again | |
Trying to get out of the wind | |
Are you now | |
(repeat to fade) |
Light snow falling | |
On the muffler shops and the lumber yards | |
The streets are slick as glass | |
Ditches lined with stranded cars | |
The tow trucks are busy | |
Dealing with the evening rush | |
