Outskirts (Album Version)

歌詞

Light snow falling On the muffler shops and the lumber yards The streets are slick as glass Ditches lined with stranded cars The tow trucks are busy Dealing with the evening rush I might have picked a better day I probably shouldn't expect that much (I'm just) On the outskirts Of an old familiar town With a misty darkness coming down On the fringes Outside looking in She says Well now where you been Didn't expect you back again Trying to get out of the wind Are you now Standing on the doorstep Something doesn't feel the same Strange car in the driveway I guess I really can't complain I wonder should I even knock Or Just head out on my way And It's an awkward moment Staring at the floor Filling up the ashtray (½ chorus) Cold coffee Styrofoam cup from the Stop 'n go Throw it in the floorboard Catch the weather on the radio Freezing rain Continued on through the morning Travelers' advisory I'll give a little more warning next time (I'm just) On the outskirts Of an old familiar town With a misty darkness coming down On the fringes Outside looking in She says Well now where you been Didn't expect you back again Trying to get out of the wind Are you now (repeat to fade)
