The Boxmasters and Billy Bob Thornton Somewhere down the road album




Somewhere down the road

(Billy Bob Thornton/JD Andrew) Lately I've been thinkin'that the phone will ring
This feeling always takes me over in the spring
I took a walk this afternoon the sky was pink
It took me back to when you came and had a drink last year

"Maybe tomorrow" is a mantra for me
Even though I know it's just a fantasy
But somethin' 'bout hopin' keeps us healthier
Bankin' on your dreams can make you weathier, I hear

Drive away
Drive away
Ignore all the signs
Drive away
Drive away
Stay between the lines

Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
Is a beautiful drive
Somewhere down the road
A poetic ode
To the ones who never arrive

Lately I been think' that you're gonna call
This feelin' always takes me over in the fall
I took a walk this afternoon, the wind was strong
It took me back to when you brought your friend along last year

Waitin' for tomorrow is the life I choose
Looking 'round the corner for the girl with good news
I know it seems crazy but it keeps me sane
To bask in the sun standing in a rain of tears

Drive away
Drive away
Ignore all the signs
Drive away
Drive away
Stay between the lines

Somewhere down the road
Somewhere down the road
Yesterday is alive
Somewhere down the road
A lonely phamtom's ode
To the life that I contrive
