Mainline

A distant memory of long blonde hair
A sweet scent a whisper on the cool night air
You're gonna get away you're getting out of here
But don't go to the city cos you'll never last there
And it feels like you're already there
And it feels like the devil may care
And it feels like well its utter despair
Just sitting here

Cold misty eyes an orange glow
You're driving too fast with nowhere to go
You're gonna get away you're getting out of here
But don't go to the country girl you'll never last there
And it feels like your already there
And it feels like the devil may care
At it feels like well its utter despair

It looked so beautiful on the mainline
Back one sweet winter when you we're mine
And that I should say that it's about time
That one sweet winter you were mine

I wanted to see you in a different light
you meet me down in the city tonight
I'm gonna get away I'm getting out of here
I won't go to the city
I'll never last there
And it feels like your already there
And it feels like the devil may care
At it feels like well its utter despair

It looked so beautiful on the mainline
Back one sweet winter when you we're mine
And that I should say that it's about time
That one sweet winter you were mine

I wanted to see you in a different light
Meet me down in the city tonight
I wanted to see you in a different light
Meet me down in the city tonight
I wanted to see you in a different light
Meet me down in the city tonight
Down in the city tonight
On the mainline
On the mainline
On the mainline
You and me on the mainline
