Song for the Road

Well the day cast down
Lengthy shadows on unfamiliar towns
I drove 300 miles from the place I call home
And I tip my hat to the angel of the north

And the sun it set fire to the heavens
On the hills over sheffield tonight
As I sail over this countryside with new friends and old
We are nowhere, but man we're alright

So you can keep your belief in whatever
I wear my cynicism like a tattoo
And while poets try to engineer definitions of love
You know all I can think of is you

And I cant wait to see you on Sunday
Far from the traffic and the smoke and the noise
For this evening I will play back every message that you sent
So I can sleep to the sound of your voice

Now I don't like to use words like 'forever'
But I will love you till the end of today
And in the morning when I remember everything that you are
I know ill fall for you over again

I know someday this all will be over
And it's hard to say what most will I miss
Just give me one way to spend my last moments alive
And I choose this, I choose this, I choose this
I choose this, I choose this, I choose this
I choose this, I choose this
I choose this
