lyrics

My head hums like a power line
when I train eyes on the girl
she's a world away and she holds my heart
like a mollusk holds a pearl

I've been in a tail spin dream
honey, come circle my drain
we'll put a thousand miles in-between us
and all of this pain

'cause the time is right
and the light is low
and the shining eyes that line the road
glimmer on and on
'til we find some semblance of home

I ride high with a sense of pride
when I catch light by the beams
and my self esteems enshrined in rhyme
by the reams

now clouds crack and the rain falls flat
'til the sky bleeds itself bled
and the asphalt gleams like a magazine
up ahead

'cause the time is right
and the light is low
and the shining eyes that line the road
glimmer on and on
'til we find some semblance of home

and oh, the silence forms an island in-between us
this is the longest night I have ever seen

'cause the time is right
and the light is low
and the shining eyes that line the road
glimmer on and on
'til we find some semblance of home
