Shortcut To Moncton


Between the doors, shakin' heads and thinking/ light about who you're with, where you are/ blue lightning hittin' trees and lighting/
roads won't let me get too down 'cause/ sometimes you can be let down
You move on ahead in quicksand/ and you hope you're still goin' east boy/ it's dreamy all day drives and short parades/ and i won't let
it mess with my head/ just grin and live it/ while you can...with wonderment
With eyes wide open/ i'm taking in all i can/ the small town darkness/ is singing by/ in trance...i'm feeling glad
You and your friends drink, laugh/ and pass out, keeping good things close/ fought till the end, it's hard to keep it all fun/ i won't let it
mess with my head/ won't let it mess with / sleeping friends or their wonderment
Though the day's been really long/ i still feel i'm close to nowhere/ and i wouldn't let no one take my place/ a warm bed, in my head i
can see/ the tidal wave of disappointment/ see the lights shining over there/ through the night i am on the way
