Far lights lyrics

Artist  : Used cars 
Song : Far lights
 
(N. Bottini)

When I was six years old, I used to reach that
road
And when the sun went down, I could see those far
lights glowin'
I stood there for a while, then I went back to my
house
Thinkin' about the far lights

The people in this town, walk starin' at the
ground
I had nothin' to say, so I went to watch those
lights
And then a friend of mine, he told me "it's just
another town"
I said "I don't believe you !"
But I've never been so brave to check if he was
right

So I'm wanderin' around
Watchin' trucks passin' by
Never gonna hitch a ride
To the far lights

A sad blue neon light, is shinin' in this bar
And when she came inside, she spoke with
sparklin' eyes
She asked about those lights, they told her "it's
a town"
She cried "I don't believe you !"
So I took her hand and then we ran outside

In a breathless run
We went straight to the roadside
We were tryin' to hitch a ride
To the far lights

At the city limits sign, I felt she had a start
Her hand slipped off from mine, and she whispered
"goodbye"
And when I turned around, she was no more in
sight
I thought "I must believe it !"
Took a deep breath then I kept on with my ride

In a breathless run
I kept runnin' straight on
Still hitchin' a ride
To the far lights

I ran lookin' ahead
All along the roadside
I was tryin' to hitch a ride
To the far lights
