Helena Paparizou - To fos stin psihi/The light in our soul (live) lyrics
Words and music by dar williams
Have I got everything? am I ready to go?
Is it going to be wildis it gonna be the best time?
Or am I just a-saying so-o-o-o? am I ready to go?
What do I hear when I say I hear the call of the road?
I think it started with drivingmore speedmore dealsmore
Skymore wheels
More things to leave behindnow it’s all in a day for the
Modern mind
And I am traveling again
Calling this a ghost townand where is the heartland?
And I’m afraidohwas there any good reasonthat I had to go
When all I know is I can never come back.
Traveling I made a friendhe had a trouble in his head
And all he could say’s that he knew that the bottle
Drank the woman from his bedfrom his bed
He said "i’m not gonna lose that way again."
But sober is just like drivingmore joymore dreadsomeone
Turns her head
And smiles and disappears
He’s gotta take it like it isand it goes too fast
And he is just like mecaught in-betweenno sage advisor
Does weary mean wiser?
And someday will I sing the mountains that carried me away away
From home and hometown boys like you?
Yeahbut what about us? was it really that bad?
Oh it’s hard to believe I want a highway roadstop
More than all the times we hadon little dirt roads
What am I reaching for that’s better than a hand to hold?
It really was about drivingnot famenot wealth
Not driving away from myself
It’s just myself drove away from me
And now I gotta get it back and it goes so fastso I am traveling
Again
Sitting at the all-nitepicking up a pen
And I’m afraidohwas there any good reason
That I had to gowhen all I know is I am all alone again
And you are the ghost townand I am the heartland
And I can sayohthat’s a very good reason
That I had to gobut now all I know is I can never come back
And I will never go back.
