Endless Grey Ribbon Lyrics - Labour Of Lust - Nick Lowe

The cold, dark night 

Is split by the stab of twin headlights 

Like fingers of guides that know of it 

But have never been there 

And eyes red-rimmed 

Are pealed for the n'th time 

And strain for the roadsigns 

That flash past the windshield 

In the hard drivin' rain

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

His mind is not dwelling on beds of white linen 

But the endless gray ribbon that winds on ahead 

A moon comes up, cheesy and golden 

Reminding of older times, gunning moter times 

Restless and young 

A cut glass bowl, free with four gallons 

Is now the companion 

Of what once was the champion of heartbreakers' row 

His thoughts may be thinking of sweet smelling women 

But the endless gray ribbon is his for tonight 

From Coastacola to Richfolk, Virginia 

It's amazing how samey they are 

Twenty five buys some time with a waitress 

Passion's Peterbuilt out in the car lot 

Photos 

His thoughts may be thinking of sweet smelling women 

But the endless gray ribbon is his for tonight 

Endless gray ribbon 

Endless gray ribbon 

Endless gray ribbon...
