Burning Lights
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some dreams are made for children
But most grow old with us
And when the air can hope to hold on
And to the ground from dust to rust
Burning lights in the desert
Such a sign only you would know
Your running tyres, they're out of pressure
Such a sign only you would know
And I've been a long haul driver
Moving things but the cops don't know
Now I can see the writing
You are the last of the buffalo
Burning lights in the desert
Such a sign only you would know
Your running tyres, they're out of pressure
Such a sign only you would know
Now I've been to California
And I've been to new south wales
Sometimes I, I pull over
When I realise I've left no trace
Burning lights in the desert
Such a sign only you would know
Your running tyres, they're out of pressure
Such a sign only you would know
