The bridges all crumbled
The water soaks into rocks
That fell at the bottom of the road
(At the end of town)
The town that we lived in
The memories shaken apart
From the weeds that grow
Over the sidewalks
Running away from the streets we knew
Sidewalks
Like the time we thought was made for you, oh
Out on the front porch
Watching the cars as they go by
(Eighteen blue, twenty-one gray)
Looking ahead
For the first time that we could drive
Out on our own
To speed away
