When the Subway Comes Above the Ground
In T.O. I was laughing At my friend who sold his soul I guess it wouldn't've been so funny had I not sold mine for less Orange smokestacks in the sunset casting shadows until our faces drowned It's better to have left and laughed than never to have left at all I found myself on a subway coming above the ground
I used to tango But that, that was then I danced too close to the band that's how I got this ringing in my ears And sometimes I just can't sleep from the sound I can't hear it during the day, It's just at night or when things get quiet Like when the subway comes above the ground
In Tennessee, I went looking For someone to throw me against the wall I wanted to be inspired until disheartened, spend the money I'd hard-earned Oh, just to see his name with flashing yellow lights bulbs all around But he left us in the Mississippi He wasn't even thirty-one If only he'd come up like a subway from the ground 更多更详尽歌词 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔镜歌词网
In springtime, I was standing With a brown dog by my side I was sweating I was staring at Mayan ruins Then I was next to you on that bus going straight out of town From Memphis and Nashville to New York City Your jaw was wide and pretty And you turned to me and said, “Am I in ruins like the outskirts of the city where all the subways come above ground?” And I said no
In Iceland, it was festival season And I went knocking at your door You opened up and there you were With the hale of the porchlight you were crowned We stayed up all night Phrases fading like countryside in the rearview mirror I was hoping that one day you'd be next to me or at least somewhere near When the subway comes above the ground
