Hmm mmm
|
|
Once upon another time
|
Somebody’s hands who felt like mine
|
Turned the key and took a drive
|
Was free
|
|
I recall the sun sank low
|
Buckley on the radio
|
Cigarette was burning slow
|
So breathe
|
|
Just yellow lines and tire marks
|
Sun-kissed skin and handle bars
|
And where I stood was where I was
|
To be
|
|
No enemies to call my own
|
No porchline on to pull my home
|
And where I was is beautiful
|
Because I was free
|
|
Once upon another time
|
Before I knew this life was mine
|
Before I left the child behind
|
Be
|
|
Hmm mmm
|
|
I saw myself in summer nights
|
And starts lit up like candle lights
|
I made my wish but mostly I
|
believed
|
|
And yellow lines and tire marks
|
Sun-kissed skin and handle bars
|
And where I stood was where I was
|
To be
|
|
Once upon another time
|
Deciding nothing good in dying
|
So I would just keep on driving
|
Because I was free
|
|
Hmm mmm
|
