Never Street

Gear down
I pick myself up off the ground
Look around
There's a couple faces in the crowd

Now I know
Life is slow
Stop and go
On the road
Driving down Never Street
Cause it's there
Or rather was
Or still must be
I disagree on where we need to meet

Don't mind
Don't put your faith in humankind
You'll find
Another way to pass the time
You'll see
We'll be as happy as can be
Mislead
We'll stay a happy mystery

Can't seem to bite my tongue
My guitar's always unstrung
A glass of whisky to calm myself
I knocked your picture off the shelf

I still try to force a smile
The past it was beguiled
Oh it's a mile to Never Street
Back to where we used to meet

Gear down
I pick myself up off the ground
Look around
I'm finally swimming, I'm never gonna drown

Now I know
Life is slow
Stop and go
On the road
Driving down Never St
Cause it's there
Or rather was
Or still must be
I disagree on where we need to meet

Don't mind
Don't put your faith in humankind
You'll find
Another way to pass the time
You'll see
I'll make you as happy as can be
Oh mislead
We'll stay a happy mystery

In retrospection
Of a tense perfection
Your pale grey eyes
Veil a delicate disguise
Crass and mal-intent, yeah
And amorous fervent
Fine lines split our time
In those downhill climbs

Gear down
I pick myself up off the ground
Look around
I finally got my feet on solid ground

Now I know
Life is slow
Stop and go
On the road
Driving down Never Street
Cause it's there
Or rather was
Or still must be
I disagree on where we need to meet

Don't mind
Why would you put your faith in humankind
You'll find
That they will let you down in time
You'll see
We're gonna be as happy as can be
Mislead
Oh baby stay the hell away from me

Oh Never Street
Yeah that old place we used to meet

Unwind
Forget the past it wasn't kind
You'll find
That I will vanish from your mind
Nice try
Hey, for a second we were high
Untied
On Never Street we say goodbye

Oh yeah, that place we used to meet
We were driving together, driving together
Oh down Never Street
