The screen door slams |
| [00:52.20] |
Mary's dress waves |
| [00:55.95] |
Like a vision she dances across the porch |
| [00:59.48] |
As the radio plays |
| [01:03.98] |
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely |
| [01:06.93] |
Hey that's me and I want you only |
| [01:10.98] |
Don't turn me home again |
| [01:12.71] |
I just can't face myself alone again |
| [01:18.37] |
Don't run back inside |
| [01:20.85] |
Darling you know just what I'm here for |
| [01:25.54] |
So you're scared and you're thinking |
| [01:27.97] |
That maybe we ain't that young anymore |
| [01:32.58] |
Show a little faith there's magic in the night |
| [01:36.17] |
You ain't a beauty but hey you're alright |
| [01:40.77] |
Oh and that's alright with me |
| [01:48.76] |
You can hide `neath your covers |
| [01:50.93] |
And study your pain |
| [01:52.45] |
Make crosses from your lovers |
| [01:54.48] |
Throw roses in the rain |
| [01:57.26] |
Waste your summer praying in vain |
| [02:00.39] |
For a savior to rise from these streets |
| [02:03.18] |
Well now I'm no hero |
| [02:05.86] |
That's understood |
| [02:07.58] |
All the redemption I can offer girl |
| [02:10.32] |
Is beneath this dirty hood |
| [02:13.30] |
With a chance to make it good somehow |
| [02:16.04] |
Hey what else can we do now |
| [02:18.61] |
Except roll down the window |
| [02:21.45] |
And let the wind blow back your hair |
| [02:26.86] |
Well the night's busting open |
| [02:29.28] |
These two lanes will take us anywhere |
| [02:34.00] |
We got one last chance to make it real |
| [02:38.04] |
To trade in these wings on some wheels |
| [02:43.71] |
Climb in back |
| [02:44.72] |
Heaven's waiting on down the tracks |
| [02:50.28] |
Oh oh come take my hand |
| [02:54.08] |
Riding out tonight to case the promised land |
| [02:59.43] |
Oh oh Thunder Road oh Thunder Road |
| [03:06.64] |
Lying out there like a killer in the sun |
| [03:10.28] |
Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run |
| [03:15.35] |
Oh Thunder Road sit tight take hold |
| [03:21.91] |
Thunder Road |
| [03:26.82] |
Well I got this guitar |
| [03:28.84] |
And I learned how to make it talk |
| [03:33.85] |
And my car's out back |
| [03:36.13] |
If you're ready to take that long walk |
| [03:42.00] |
From your front porch to my front seat |
| [03:45.00] |
The door's open but the ride it ain't free |
| [03:49.60] |
And I know you're lonely |
| [03:51.77] |
For words that I ain't spoken |
| [03:53.84] |
But tonight we'll be free |
| [03:57.28] |
All the promises'll be broken |
| [04:00.67] |
There were ghosts in the eyes |
| [04:03.15] |
Of all the boys you sent away |
| [04:08.41] |
They haunt this dusty beach road |
| [04:10.84] |
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets |
| [04:15.60] |
They scream your name at night in the street |
| [04:19.95] |
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet |
| [04:24.04] |
And in the lonely cool before dawn |
| [04:27.89] |
You hear their engines roaring on |
| [04:32.45] |
But when you get to the porch they're gone |
| [04:36.23] |
On the wind so Mary climb in |
| [04:44.12] |
It's a town full of losers |
| [04:46.73] |
And I'm pulling out of here to win |
