Lyrics

Mm.

Mm.

Mm.

Mm.

Once upon another time,

somebody's hands who felt like mine

turned the key and took a drive,

was free.

Highway curved, the sun sank low.

Buckley on the radio.

The cigarette was burning slow.

So breathe.

Just yellow lines

and tire marks,

and sunkissed skin

and handlebars.

And where I stood

was where I was to be.

No enemies to call my own.

No porch light on to pull me home.

And where I was

is beautiful because I was

free.

(D5)Mm.

Once upon another time

before I knew

which life was mine,

before I left

the child behind me,

I saw myself

in summer nights,

and (Bm)stars lit up

like candlelight.

I (G)make my wish

but (A7sus4)mostly I (Bm)believed

(G)in (D)yellow lines

and (Bm)tire marks,

(Em)sunkissed skin and (A)handlebars.

And (D)where I stood

was (Bm)where I was to (Em)be.
