Chucks on a Wire
Cant help but slow down by those power-lines
Nah nothing changes in this town, its always the same
Everybody else just keeps on driving by
But when I look up, Its Friday Night at the Football game
Our team was down by thirty
You & I weren't even worried
Cause we wanted to leave anyway
To that empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday
We wrote our names & we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, Thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire
I can't believe they've been up there so long
A memory of us up in the sky stitched in black & white
Can't remember where exactly we went wrong but I
Can't help but smile everytime I'm passing by
Cause I'm back behind those bleachers
Your hands underneath my t-shirt
Didn't care about watching the game
& That empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday
We wrote our names & we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, Thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Sometimes I wonder if you still remember
Walkin' home barefoot & laughing cause we didn't know better
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire
Nah nothing changes in this town, its always the same
Everybody else just keeps on driving by
But when I look up, Its Friday Night at the Football game
Our team was down by thirty
You & I weren't even worried
Cause we wanted to leave anyway
To that empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday
We wrote our names & we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, Thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire
I can't believe they've been up there so long
A memory of us up in the sky stitched in black & white
Can't remember where exactly we went wrong but I
Can't help but smile everytime I'm passing by
Cause I'm back behind those bleachers
Your hands underneath my t-shirt
Didn't care about watching the game
& That empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday
We wrote our names & we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, Thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Sometimes I wonder if you still remember
Walkin' home barefoot & laughing cause we didn't know better
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire
