Far Lights Lyrics - Singles - Used Cars

(N. Bottini) 

When I was six years old, I used to reach that road 

And when the sun went down, I could see those far lights glowin' 

I stood there for a while, then I went back to my house 

Thinkin' about the far lights 

The people in this town, walk starin' at the ground 

I had nothin' to say, so I went to watch those lights 

And then a friend of mine, he told me "it's just another town" 

I said "I don't believe you !" 

But I've never been so brave to check if he was right 

So I'm wanderin' around 

Watchin' trucks passin' by 

Never gonna hitch a ride 

To the far lights 

A sad blue neon light, is shinin' in this bar 

And when she came inside, she spoke with sparklin' eyes 

She asked about those lights, they told her "it's a town" 

She cried "I don't believe you !" 

So I took her hand and then we ran outside 

In a breathless run 

We went straight to the roadside 

We were tryin' to hitch a ride 

To the far lights 

At the city limits sign, I felt she had a start 

Her hand slipped off from mine, and she whispered "goodbye" 

And when I turned around, she was no more in sight 

I thought "I must believe it !" 

Took a deep breath then I kept on with my ride 

In a breathless run 

I kept runnin' straight on 

Still hitchin' a ride 

To the far lights 

I ran lookin' ahead 

All along the roadside 

I was tryin' to hitch a ride 

To the far lights
