See me down at the station
By the lane
With my hands in my pocket
Jingling a wish coin
That I stole from a fountain
That was drowning all the cares in the world
When I get older
Climbin up on the back porch fence
Just to see the dogs runnin
With a ring and a question
And my shiverin voice is singing
Thru a crack in the window
I better go it alone
Down on the corner
See me standin
On a makeshift road
With the dust storm blowin
In a long black shadow
Pull a hammer from a coal mine
Down where your daddy was workin
Comb my hair back
Strike a match on a bathroom wall
Where my number was written
Drivin on the sidewalk
Lookin back and the sky is burning
In my rearview mirror
I better go it alone
I'm comin over See me down at the station By the lane With my hands in my pocket Jingling a wish coin That I stole from a fountain That was drowning all the cares in the world When I get older Climbin up on the back porch fence Just to see the dogs runnin With a ring and a question And my shiverin voice is singing Thru a crack in the window I better go it alone Down on the corner See me standin On a makeshift road With the dust storm blowin In a long black shadow Pull a hammer from a coal mine Down where your daddy was workin Comb my hair back Strike a match on a bathroom wall Where my number was written Drivin on the sidewalk Lookin back and the sky is burning In my rearview mirror I better go it alone Explain Request ×
