Gravel Road

Hell things sure look different now than they did before
Remember driving grinding down the gravel road
We were seventeen and we ruled the world
Hell things sure look different now than they were before

Sometimes I can't believe what I left behind
All the good friends I had, all the starlight and endless nights
Dappled shade under trees, all my peace of mind
Who’d have thought these gravel roads would ever get paved

Left our eternal initials exposed under the bridge
Hidden away from the headlights and traffic
Now they're covered with glands and six-six-six
Our eternal initials there under the bridge

There's nothing like the feeling of coming back
Not recognizing the lane from the paths

Hell I ain’t got time for this
All the things I thought I'd miss
The interstate built for speed
I'll just take my memories

Sometimes I can't believe what I left behind
Who'd have thought these gravel roads would ever get paved
Hell things sure look different now than they did before
Left my peace of mind there under that bridge
