The Road - Lydia Ainsworth

Channeling a velvet smile

It's all I can take with me

I turn to wipe the windows clean

In reverse it all feels so free

The dust is getting thicker

The light is getting dimmer

Did I have to let this go

I remember

I remember

Now I'm driving down this open palm

Burning up the back of my hand

Tracing all the things I never did

All the things that I never said

As a hawk's deflected path

Meets the end within another end

As two mirrors guide the form

Let's go on and on and on once more

When there's nothing left to break

In a gaze within another gaze

Bending backwards through soft eyes

Let's go on and on and on next time

I couldn't take the long way home

Guess that I was frightened

I thought that I could face this storm

I'm only good when sun is shining

Now there's thunder and there's lightening

Should I put it down to timing

That I had to let this go

Do you regret it

I regret it

Now I'm driving down this lonely road

There's no way that I can turn back

Cause I know it hurt to see me go

There's no way that you'll take me back

Open sky with no landmark

Making progress and yet nothing's changing

As two mirrors guide the form

Let's go on and on and on once more

When there's nothing left to break

In a gaze within another gaze

Bending backwards through soft eyes

Let's go on and on and on next time

Let's go on

Let's go on and on and on next time

Let's go on

Let's go on and on and on next time
