Lyrics Allison Road - Gin Blossoms

Allison Road

I’ve lost my mind on what I’d find
All of the pressure that I left behind
On Allison Road
Fools in the rain if the sun gets through
Fire’s in the heaven of the eyes I knew
On Allison Road
Dark clouds file the moon is near
Birds fly by a.m. in her bedroom stare
There’s no telling what I might find
I couldn’t see I was lost at the time…
Yeah I didn’t know I was lost at the time
On Allison Road
So she fills up her sails with my wasted breath
And each one’s more wasted that the others you can bet
On Allison Road
Now I can’t hide so why not drive
I know I want to love her but I can’t decide
On Allison Road
I didn’t know I was lost at the time
Eyes in the sun where the road wasn’t wide
So I went looking for an exit sign
All I wanted to find tonight…
Etc.
Time won’t stand by forever if I know it’s true
And I’ve learned not to say never
Or else I’ll seem the fool
Twenty-nine you’d think I’d know better
Living like a kid
When my lies seem less than clever
Is when I fall for it
Only time will tell if wishing wells
Can bring us anything
Or fade like scenes from childhood dreams
Forgotten memories
Some rides don’t have much of a finish
That’s the ride I took
Through good and bad and straight through indifference
Without a second look
There’s no intention worthy of mention
If we never try
So hang your hopes on rusted out hinges
Take 'em for a ride
Only time will… etc.
