Painted Yellow Lines Lyrics - Dispatch

Aw it's dark outside 

I've been trying to get a ride 

(While) my body waits, my body waits 

America warm my face 

I've been trying to turn the page 

Once i was a little boy, staring at my shoes 

You came along and found me in the chicken coop 

But time takes over, i can't say when 

Time takes over, may we do it again 

Take me to the beachhead let's go over 

All of those rocks at the end of the road 

Take me down to main street with no clothes on with our bare feet on the 

Painted yellow lines with our shadows far behind us 

Broke into that summer school and fooled around on the infirmary cot 

And we can be like all those fairies making their rain angels in the eddies 

And I have no expectation just an adolescent heart 

Take me to the beachhead let's go over 

All of those rocks at the end of the road 

Help me down the seawall let's find Marci 

See if she got that 

Invitation to the movie, the one where the kids break out of juvie 

And then by their own admission they go and turn themselves all in 

Just as they get there to the station, 

The young one wheels and begs the pavement 

For brother speed to make arrangements with the spirits of the night 

Take me to the race track let's go bet on 

Aw the one that no one expects to win and 

Let's bet on the skinny horse he will surely try the hardest to come in first 

I bet you for the winner they put on some kind of fancy dinner 

Let's be like those Philadelphia sisters 

That have prayed straight for a hundred years 

I have no expectation, just to be here in the present 

And behold you for a second before it all goes awa
