Testo Backroads - Anaïs Mitchell
Testo della canzone Backroads (Anaïs Mitchell), tratta dall'album Anaïs Mitchell
I recall small town stars
The radio tower in the reservoir
The way it was
The way it goes
And the way crazy way you drove
Backroads
Daredevil on a joyride
Thought you were a rebel of some kind
Angels watching over all the time
Didn't even know
Backroads
Small town stars
That shone and all night only seem to say
You are one of our own
Hey, you might be someone
Someday
Heaven was above your head
Met you at the Watershed
The day the doors of high school close
God opens the window
Backroads
Say goodbye to childhood
Getting wild up in the woods
Drop the cans when the policemen show
And everybody dove
Backroads
Different cop on the same night
Stopped a kid about a tail light
Somebody thought it didn't look right
Might as well have said he didn't look white
Might've rode all night, might've gone far
Had he been riding in a different car
You and I were in the dark
Driving under different stars
That shone and all night only seem to stay
You are one of our own
Hey, you might be someone
Someday
Young, in love and it's down my eyes
Never gonna hurt like the first time
Pulling over on a shoulder
Let the tears drops roll
Backroads
Cliché on the radio
Speaking straight to my soul
Baby, baby please don't go
Don't leave me all alone
Backroads
But I was not alone
I had the stars that shone
You are one of our own
Hey, you might be someone
You got hearts to break
You've got mistakes to make
You got miles
And miles
And miles to go
Backroads
Backroads
I recall small town stars
The radio tower in the reservoir
The way it was
The way it goes
And the crazy way you drove
