Though we let it down You don't need to carry What's far from here is not so scary Though you cannot see her You don't have to worry She needs your hand though your eyes are blurry She is getting thin You are growing gray and white And you don't know how to tell her as you say goodnight Interstate, poison freeway It takes you down the line
You could go back in time You could hold her close At night in your slumber Dream her as a child, when you loved her mother Now you're in her house She is smiling in a dress She's now a woman, you are just a guest Interstate, poison freeway It takes you down the line You could go back in time
