Lyrics of Far lights

(n. bottini)

When i was six years old, i used to reach that road
And when the sun went down, i could see those far lights glowin'
I stood there for a while, then i went back to my house
Thinkin' about the far lights

The people in this town, walk starin' at the ground
I had nothin' to say, so i went to watch those lights
And then a friend of mine, he told me "it's just another town"
I said "i don't believe you !"
But i've never been so brave to check if he was right

So i'm wanderin' around
Watchin' trucks passin' by
Never gonna hitch a ride
To the far lights

A sad blue neon light, is shinin' in this bar
And when she came inside, she spoke with sparklin' eyes
She asked about those lights, they told her "it's a town"
She cried "i don't believe you !"
So i took her hand and then we ran outside

In a breathless run
We went straight to the roadside
We were tryin' to hitch a ride
To the far lights

At the city limits sign, i felt she had a start
Her hand slipped off from mine, and she whispered "goodbye"
And when i turned around, she was no more in sight
I thought "i must believe it !"
Took a deep breath then i kept on with my ride

In a breathless run
I kept runnin' straight on
Still hitchin' a ride
To the far lights

I ran lookin' ahead
All along the roadside
I was tryin' to hitch a ride
To the far lights
