City Lights (Days Go by) - Bob Mould

days go by

I wait to see the city lights

clear view sky

I’ve got to make the most of this

I rewind the interstate

in my distant memory

hateful logical

cloudy calm and everything

take the wheel

there’s got to be an exit somewhere

the less I feel

the more I like the way you treat me I respond to everything

whispering into my eyes

so illogical

cloudy calm and everything

I want you near me but I need the space for contemplation

I want you dearly but I need to find the city lights

driving away from you

someday I’ll be back to find you

I hope you understand

I need to find my city lights
