Rearview

Some day you're going to ride Right out of town With the blinders on And the pedal down Past the same roads So traveled on There's no doubling back You're moving straight on Past the parking lot Where you were found And the grassy spot Where they want to lay you down Past the golden towers Rising higher and higher Past the dead trees With the live wires And what's in front of you Nothing but a rear view Some day you're going to fly Just take right off from there Up into the thin air Release you from your worries and cares Ah, to get a bird's eye view Of what you've done and didn't do And what was once inside of you Is spreading out across the blue And what's in front of you Ain't nothing but a rear view Past the front lawns And way out past the parks Where the children play It will surely break your heart And what's inside of you Is spilling out across the blue
