aaron west & the roaring twenties - runnin' toward the light lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i used to hate all my dad’s outlaw country bands
he’d play me when i was young
’cause they’d lie through their teeth about the lives they lead
when all i wanted were honest songs
but now they’re anthems in the van
and we’re screaming them out on the highway
for good luck
in the bright blistering sun

[chorus]
runnin’ toward the light
on the shoulder of a dream
i’m singing in my sleep
runnin’ toward the light
i stagger through the streets
i sing it in my sleep

[verse 2]
cream fights through truck-stop coffee here in the quiet purple dawn
last night we played another highway bar, for the first time they sang along
spray paint a ’20’ up on the over p-ss
like a blood pact for the drifters we’ve become
in the soft burgeoning sun

[chorus]
runnin’ toward the light
on the shoulder of a dream
i’m singing in my sleep
runnin’ toward the light
i stagger through the streets
i sing it in my sleep

[bridge]
this is for rosa, and catherine
and mom and dad
and this is for robert, and jesse
and the thunderbird staff
i’m gonna make you proud of me
i’m gonna make you proud of me
i’m gonna make you proud of me

[chorus]
runnin’ toward the light
on the shoulder of a dream
i’m singing in my sleep
runnin’ toward the light
i stagger through the streets
i sing it in my sleep
