Your eyes are long Vermont roads |
|
With a tacky song on the radio |
|
And your eyes are toothless young men |
|
In Tennessee in the rain again |
|
And fireflies never go to sleep |
|
And country songs never help you sleep |
|
After all those trains and all those breakdown lanes |
|
The roads don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
|
After all those days on God-forsaken highways |
|
The roads don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
|
Your eyes are the Mesa Verde |
|
Big and brown and far away |
|
And your eyes are Kansas City |
|
In Kansas and in Missouri |
|
After all those trains and all those breakdown lanes |
|
The roads don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
|
After all those days on God-forsaken highways |
|
The roads don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
|
After all this time and after all your crying |
|
The roads don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
|
The roads are dark and long and all those country songs |
|
Well, they don't love you and they still won't pretend to |
