lyrics
There's a spot downtown real great
That you left last night real late
When all the drinkers walking
Had run out of their time
Just sitting and sitting there
With not a single threatening stare
And you lay your head down for just a second
Cause nobody seemed to mind
You've got hours and hours and hours to get home
Those hours and hours and hours
When you're alone
Such an age and gender range
That not even you look strange
Looking out at a city wondering
How it could seem so wide
And your thumb out and the sun out
And the pale is turning red
And you look up at the sun
Thinking it's a better place to hide
You've got miles and miles and miles to wonder why
With passers and passers and passers passing by
Those hours and hours and hours away from home
Those hours and hours and hours...
...you'll be alone.
That you left last night real late
When all the drinkers walking
Had run out of their time
Just sitting and sitting there
With not a single threatening stare
And you lay your head down for just a second
Cause nobody seemed to mind
You've got hours and hours and hours to get home
Those hours and hours and hours
When you're alone
Such an age and gender range
That not even you look strange
Looking out at a city wondering
How it could seem so wide
And your thumb out and the sun out
And the pale is turning red
And you look up at the sun
Thinking it's a better place to hide
You've got miles and miles and miles to wonder why
With passers and passers and passers passing by
Those hours and hours and hours away from home
Those hours and hours and hours...
...you'll be alone.
