INTRO

VERSE
Drive on drive on
The highway bright and long
The river s overflowing
The house s burning down
Drive on drive on
The engines on the lawn
We kiss goodbye and drink up
Some hours before the dawn
We kiss goodbye and drink up
I ll miss you when you re gone
BRIDGE
So throw me a line
Throw me a line
My heart s underneath
Aside on our feet
The windows are shaking
And so are my bones
The worlds going round
Throw me a rope
CHORUS
A trumpet and a trombone
Still echoing in the hall
And bells ringing out at dawn
BACK TO BRIDGE
So hang on to me
Hang on to me
The world s going round
And time s coming round
The headlights are swinging all over the lawn
So throw me a rope
Throw me a rope
CHORUS
I knew you when i was young
The loveliest girl in town
I wish you were still around
I waited a long time
I bore you
I waited a long time
I lost you
I was sleeping in the backseat
When I got home
I was finally reminded
I lost you
