Used Cars 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
