Milow - Thunder Road Lyrics
The screen door slams, Mary's dress wavesLike a vision she dances across the porch as the radio playsRoy Orbison's singing for the lonelyHey, that's me and I want you onlyDon't turn me home again, I just can't face myself aloneDon't run back inside, darling, you know just what I'm here forSo you're scared and you're thinking that maybe we ain't that young anymoreShow a little faith, there's magic in the nightYou ain't a beauty, but hey, you're alrightAnd that's alright with meYou can hide 'neath your covers and study your painMake crosses from your lover, throw roses in the rainWaste your summer praying in vainFor a savior to rise from these streetsYeah, well, I'm no hero, that's understoodAll the redemption I can offer, girl, is beneath this dirty hoodWith a chance to make it good somehowWhat else can we do now?Roll down the window and let the wind blow back your hairWell, the night's bustin' open, these two lanes can take us anywhereWe got one last chance to make it real, to trade in these wings on some wheelsClimb in back, heaven's waiting down on the trackOh-oh, come take my handRiding out tonight to case the promised landOh-oh-oh-oh, Thunder Road, oh, Thunder RoadLying out there like a killer in the sunIt's late, we can make it if we runOh-oh-oh-oh, Thunder Road, sit tightTake hold, Thunder RoadWell, I got this guitar and I learned how to make it talkAnd my car's out back if you're ready to take that long walkFrom your front porch to my front seatDoor's open, the ride, it ain't freeAnd in the lonely cool before dawn, they'll hear our engine roaring onBut when they'll get to the porch we'll be gone on the windSo Mary climb inIt's a town full of losers, and I'm pulling out of here to win
