Put me in the car
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.
Shadows are my friends
And the light hits my face
And hides behind the clouds
And its institute of grace
And I
Children warm their beds
With dreams of growing old
But deception has run rampant
And their futures have been mistold
Refrão
Just put me in the car
And drive so far
Until I'm free again
And whisper in my ear
That all these years
I've been dreaming
That you're kissing me goodnight
It'll be all right (3x)
It'll be all that I ever ask of you
Darkness thinks I'm pretty
And the rain covers my soul
And the women think I'm ugly
They can't not buy hearts of gold
And freedom teaches nothing
If only to create
Lately innocence is jaded
Only preachers hate
Refrão
Just put me in the car
And drive so far
Until I'm free again
And kiss me goodnight
It'll be all right (3x)
It'll be all that I ever ask of you
