On my way up north up on the ventura,
I pulled back the hood and I was talking to you,
And I knew then it would be a life long thing,
But I didn't know that we could break a silver lining.
And I'm so sad
Like a good book I can't put this day back,
A sorta fairytale with you
A sorta fairytale with you
Things you said that day
Up on the 101
The girl had come undone.
I tried to downplay it with a bet about us,
You said that you'd take it as long as I could
I could not erase it.
And I'm so sad
Like a good book I can't put this day back,
A sorta fairytale with you
A sorta fairytale with you
And I ride along side,
And I rode along side you then,
And I rode along side 'til you lost me there in the open road,
And I rode along side 'til the honey spread itself so thin,
For me to break your bread
For me to take your word I had to steal it.
And I'm so sad
Like a good book I can't put this day back,
A sorta fairytale with you
I could pick back up whenever I feel
Down New Mexico way
Something about the open road
I knew that he was looking for some Indian blood and
find a little in you, find a little in me.
We may be on this road
But we're just impostors in this country you know.
So we go along and we said we'd fake it.
Feel better with Oliver Stone 'til I almost smacked him
seemed right that night
and I don't know what takes hold
Out there in the desert cold.
These guys think they must try and just get over on us.
And I'm so sad
Like a good book I can't put this day back
A sorta fairytale with you
A sorta fairytale with you
And I was riding by,
Riding along side, for a while 'til you lost me,
And I was riding by, riding along 'til you lost me,
'Til you lost me in the rear view
You lost me.
I said, "Hold on..."
Way up north I took my day
All in all was a pretty nice day and
I put the hood right back where you could taste heaven perfectly.
Feel out the summer breeze
Didn't know when we'd be back and I -
I don't - didn't think we'd end up like - like this...
