If You Lived Here, You'd Be Home Now Testo

Towards the limit of maps
The roads surrender to empty spaces
The roofline seems to collapse into the evening
I was asleep on the passenger❝s side
White as a ghost against a floodlit billboard
Day casts different light upon those promises
But you know it❝s true
If you lived here, you❝d be home now
And yet don❝t forget
If you lived here, you❝d be home now
Even the stereo sounds tired
Here where the power poles look more like robot skeletons
Slack-wired against the evening
Let❝s just drive until we❝ve found somewhere
There are more headstones in the cemetery
Than houses in the town
And never leave
❝Cause you know it❝s true
If you lived here, you❝d be home now
And yet don❝t forget
If you lived here, you❝d be home now
Tonight the cul-de-sacs are quiet
The driveways don❝t lead anywhere
There❝s no-one else awake
We could trust our deepest secrets
To the artificial lake
We❝re in no hurry anyway
We both could use the break
