Lyrics:
Billboards against the sky
> a woman as seductive as the open road
> the pain lifts
> and when we touch it stops the blood flow
>
> she and I had a talk about this
> to try and reach a middle ground
> I had a different experience and I think
> I think she heard a different sound
>
> I thought I could outrun the river
> Like sandpipers racing the tide
> Up on the rooftop time goes on forever
> the distance opens between the earth and sky
>
> I put my feet in the water
> to cool down the pain
> the river was deep and muddy
> being after springtime rain and then
>
> I thought I saw you running
> the soles of your feet flashed white
> the stars and the leaves closed in on us
> you were lit in a heavenly light and
>
> I thought I could outrun the river
> Like sandpipers racing the tide
> Up on the rooftop time goes on forever
> the distance opens between the earth and sky
>
> Now we’re daring hope against pickpocket princes and
> running scared planes inside our defenses
> everyone turned to look as the world opened up
> but she still whispers peace in my ears
>
> someone was too close to us we were
> bound down and tied at the seams
> I was too close to you
> Lost in the wake of a love supreme
>
> I thought I could outrun the river
> Like sandpipers racing the tide
> Up on the rooftop time goes on forever
> the distance opens between the earth and sky
