Artist: Parachute Album: The Way It Was (2011) Title: American Secrets
Lyrics American SecretsWhen the sun fell low in the blood red sky Every house called out as we passed them by She would grab my hand as the trees leaned in Oh I'm still racing home from the place I've been It was all I knew I was waiting for the big one And I stayed forever
American secrets Had a dream that was ours that we just didn't know yet /
We would drive out through every lonely street Smelled the truth in her hair Felt the world at my feet But we were just two kids in a beat up car Oh I'm still driving home from the things I've done It was all I knew I was waiting for the big one And I stayed forever
American secrets Had a dream that was ours that we just didn't know yet American secrets Had a dream that was ours that was lost in the regrets
We were caught on the inside Left it all on that bedside Give me one more minute with those baby blues. We pull up Oh she looks back and waves as I wait too long I can picture her room as a light turns on I'm still dancing alone with the way it was I'm still dancing alone with the way it was I'm still dancing alone with the way it was
Give me one more Give me one more Give me one more minute with My baby Give me one more Give me one more Give me one more minute with American secrets Give me one more Give me one more Give me one more minute with Her Oh she looks back and waves as she slips inside Every hope in the world in those bright blue eyes I'm still dancing alone with the way it was
Got my mind made up And I'm coming back for you I can hear your voice calling and I'll be there soon I can see you there In the bedroom by the stairs Oh I've always been running but I don't know where It took 25 years but I finally see Not the boy I was In the car that you saw leave But I'm still not the man that I thought I'd be But when the trumpets sound And the good Lord calls my name Oh I'm gonna be with you Oh I'm gonna be with you It took 25 years but I finally see It took 25 years but I finally see It took 25 years but I finally see |
