David Ford - Song For The Road lyrics

rate me

Well the day cast down lengthy shadows on unfamiliar towns and i drove 300 miles from the place i call home and i tipped my hat to the angel of the north and the sun, it set fire to the heavens on the hills over sheffield tonight and i will sail over this countryside with new friends and old we are nowhere but man, we’re alright so you can keep your belief in whatever and i’ll wear my cynicism like a tattoo and while poets try to engineer definitions of love oh you know that all i can think of is you and i just can’t wait to see you on sunday far from the traffic and the smoke and the noise but for this evening i will play back every message that you sent so i can sleep to the sound of your voice oh now i don’t lightly use words like forever but i will love you ‘til the end of today and in the morning when i remember everything that you are well i know i’ll fall for you over again now i know someday this all will be over and it’s hard to say what most will i miss just give me one way to spend my last moments alive and i choose this, i choose this, i choose this i choose this, i choose this, i choose this i choose this, i choose this, yeah i choose… this
