Salvation Army

Burning out like a streetlight Burning out with your hands on the wheel Burning out in the January sun Burning out for real You had a dream that you pulled the trigger Watched the hammer come down We had a good run, floating down the river Until the river ran out And all the time spent looking for each other Is time spent well It wasn't much but I swear it was something As far as I can tell Staring out of the shotgun window As you speed down the 405 Love's a string that I tied my kite to, and set the kite on fire And that night by the Salvation Army I tried to show you where the North Star was You couldn't see a single constellation Just the cops meeting their quotas And all the time spent looking for each other Is time spent well It wasn't much but I swear it was something As far as I can tell And all the time spent looking for each other Is time spent well It wasn't much but I swear it was something As far as I can tell Nothing can hurt us now Nothing can hurt us now Nothing can hurt us now Had a dream that you pulled the trigger Watched the hammer come down We had a good run, floating down the river Until the river ran out
