Running down around the towns along the shore When I was sixteen and on my own No, I couldn't tell you what the hell those brakes were for I was just trying to hear my song
Jimmy found his own sweet sound and won that free guitar We'd all get in the van and play Life became the Paradox, the Bear, the Rouge et Noir And the stretch of road running to L.A.
Pages turning Pages we were years from learning Straight into the night our hearts were flung Better bring your own redemption when you come To the barricades of Heaven where I'm from
All the world was shining from those hills The stars above and the lights below Among those there to test their fortunes and their wills I lost track of the score long ago
Pages turning Pages we were years from learning Straight into the night our hearts were flung Better bring your own redemption when you come To the barricades of Heaven where I'm from
Childhood comes for me at night Voices of my friends Your face bathing me in light Hope that never ends
Pages turning Pages torn and pages burning Faded pages, open in the sun Better bring your own redemption when you come To the barricades of Heaven where I'm from. Better bring your own redemption when you come To the barricades of Heaven where I'm from.
