Adopted Hometown Lyrics by Foreign Diplomats

Monami

2018

I’m waiting for the moment you tell me:
“Hit the road and don’t look back”
You’re waiting for the moment I tell you:
“I’m hitting the road and won’t come back”
But even if the highway is my baby
It wants me dead when I’m riding its back
So believe me when I hold you close
I’m not here to quit; I’ve got your back
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Let’s break everything in our way
Just to find more things to break
Let’s believe things that don’t make sense
‘Cause love sells as much as heartbreak
Let’s have our skin filled with scratch marks
And our hearts about to break
With our adopted hometown
Confining us until we break
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Ahah, ahah, ahah
Ahah, ahah, Ahah
I want to shut up ‘cause I’d rather hear your voice
In the darkness of the long long way back home
I want to fall asleep singing softly slowly
In the darkness of the long long way back home
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
