Nashville
David Mead
On a childhood highway
Through a night alone
I was barely breathing
I was crawling home
Well, it's not quite london
Or the south of france
Or an asian island
Or a second chance
Going back to nashville
Thinking 'bout the whole thing
Guess you gotta run sometimes
Maybe I'm a fast train
Rolling down a mountain
Watching all my life go by
You're a distant memory
You're an exit sign
I was talking crazy
On the driver's side
And I know I hurt you
But I can't confess
Was that blood or a wine stain
On your wedding dress?
Going back to nashville
Thinking 'bout the whole thing
Guess you gotta run sometimes
Maybe I'm a fast train
Rolling down a mountain
Watching all my life go by
Going back to nashville
Laughing at a bad break
What's the use in wondering why?
Baby, I'm a storm front
Blowing through the valley
Tearing up a good july
And it's safe and warm
Where nothing ever happens
Would it be so hard
To realign a star or two?
Change a southern night for you
Well, it's not quite evening
And it's not new york
There's a scar in the blue sky
By the old airport
And I'm talking crazy
On the driver's side
I will always love you
Like a long goodbye
