5 Chinese Brothers - The Real Fast Car lyrics

Tom meltzer I wish i had me a turbo-engine rocket-fuel jet car Don't know where i'd go but i sure know that i'd go far Head a million miles from here, find myself a new home What if that place turns out to be the same as the place from which i came? What if i've got it good here and i don't even know? What if that's why i'm still here when i really want to go? I want to get away, i want to stay I want to be free, i want you to build your world around me I wish i could understand the meaning of my dreams I wish i could write a song as good as visions of johanna When i do will the heavens open and the angels sing hosanna? I mean, how will i know i've done it? how will i realize? When i sing it will a vision of you dance before my eyes? And having something like that i'd have to try to top Might be even worse than never having not no! I wish i could hear what i'm saying now and smile All the same, i haven't finished a song in a long, long while Chorus I dreamed the world was crumbling all around me There in the rubble on the ground you found me And i pull you tight i want to hold you close At the same time i can't stay, i've got to go And there's that car but it's all out of gas I can tell by the speedometer it's the kind that goes real fast I could be someone, be someone, you know i surely could If i could stand on the rock where moses stood Chorus twice
