Shadows are my friends And the light hates my face It hides behind the clouds In its institute of grace And our children warm their beds With dreams of growing old But deception has run rampant And their futures have been mistold
Just put me in the car And drive so far Until I'm free again And whisper in my ear That all these years I've been dreaming Then you kiss me goodnight And it'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all that I have ever asked of you
Darkness thinks I'm pretty And the rain covets my soul But the women think I'm ugly They care not for hearts of gold And freedom teaches nothing If only to create Lately innocence is jaded Only preachers hate
Just put me in the car And drive so far Until I'm free again And whisper in my ear That all these years I've been dreaming Then you kiss me goodnight And it'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all that I have ever asked of you
Just put me in the car And drive so far Until I'm free again
Then you kiss me goodnight And it'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all right It'll be all that I ever asked of you
