IN YOUR CAR
Escape Together: A Journey of Youth and Dreams in Your Car
Lyrics
In the evening we're drowning ourselves in wine
In the evening, we immerse ourselves in wine.
During the afternoon we sit by the river to kill some time
During the afternoon, we sit by the river to pass the time.
Self-professed experts on the helplessness of youth
We claim expertise in the helplessness of youth.
Laughing at snobs and their diamond teeth
We mock snobs and their ostentatious diamond teeth.
But when I'm in your car and it's just us two
When I'm in your car with just us two,
I'm thinkin' 'bout the things that we could do
I contemplate the possibilities of what we could do.
Listening to Bowie, I still see us as zeroes
Listening to Bowie, I envision us as insignificant figures.
Just for one day, we could be real heroes
Yearning to be real heroes, if only for a day.
Time is running up, sittin' in your car
Time is running out as we sit in your car.
I wish we could go and leave the town
I wish we could escape the town and go somewhere.
Somewhere far, far
To a distant place, far, far away.
Somewhere far away
A wish to be somewhere distant.
I wish we could lay and feel the sun
I wish we could relax and feel the warmth of the sun.
And just drink wine, wouldn't that be fun?
Enjoying wine, imagining the fun it could be.
Somewhere far, far
Yearning to be somewhere distant.
Somewhere far away
A desire for a place far away.
Chasing our dreams and chasing thunder
Pursuing our dreams and facing challenges.
Ain't gonna stop till' we're six feet under
Not stopping until we rest in our graves.
When we're out at the night we feel so alive
At night, we feel alive and crave divine touch.
Still craving touch what's divine
Still longing for a transcendent connection.
But when I'm in your car and it's just us two
When I'm in your car with just us two,
I'm thinkin' 'bout the things that we could do
I contemplate the possibilities of what we could do.
Listening to Bowie, I still see us as zeroes
Listening to Bowie, I envision us as insignificant figures.
Just for one day, we could be real heroes
Yearning to be real heroes, if only for a day.
Time is running up, sittin' in your car
Time is running out as we sit in your car.
I wish we could go and leave the town
I wish we could escape the town and go somewhere.
Somewhere far, far
To a distant place, far, far away.
Somewhere far away
A wish to be somewhere distant.
I wish we could lay and feel the sun
I wish we could relax and feel the warmth of the sun.
And just drink wine, wouldn't that be fun?
Enjoying wine, imagining the fun it could be.
Somewhere far, far
Yearning to be somewhere distant.
Somewhere far away
A desire for a place far away.
Time is running up, sittin' in your car
Time is running out as we sit in your car.
I wish we could go and leave the town
I wish we could escape the town and go somewhere.
Somewhere far, far
To a distant place, far, far away.
Somewhere far away
A wish to be somewhere distant.
I wish we could lay and feel the sun
I wish we could relax and feel the warmth of the sun.
And just drink wine, wouldn't that be fun?
Enjoying wine, imagining the fun it could be.
Somewhere far, far
Yearning to be somewhere distant.
Somewhere far away
A desire for a place far away.
