Skyway Drive-in Lyrics - Singles - Shane Alexander

Skyway Drive-In by your grandma's house 

Used to be all they talked about 

It's been gone such a long time now 

Whatever happened to the Tanglewood 

Where our first dance made us feel so good 

Ache in my chest when I saw you in your dress 

We had small town in our bloodstreams 

Wild horses in our hearts 

It hurts like Hell when first love falls apart 

Your father gave his life to Armco Steel 

He'd take his rifle out in Nelson's field 

Sometimes I wonder if he's out there still 

He had small town in his bloodstream 

Wild horses in his heart 

Never liked me much, right from the start 

Maybe those winters got too goddamned cold 

They'd come around make me feel so old 

Just fifteen with an ancient soul 

Mmm, I always wanted so much else from life 

To head out west, find a west coast wife 

I did my time with that small town strife 

But late at night, I still see those faces 

No matter how much the time erases 

I'm goin' back, I'm gonna see those places again 

Cuz I've got small town in my bloodstream 

Wild horses in my heart and no one knows you 

Like those from your start 

If you've got small town in your bloodstream 

Then you know it's all the truth 

There ain't no better way to waste your youth
