Backroad Sunset Lyrics by Rush Slocum

Night Sky Project

2018

We drive alone in your old corvette
The best night that two friends could get
Watching the back road sunset
Empty tree silhouettes

We're sitting here in the dark enjoying peace and quiet
Still hear the Roar of the engine projecting through the silence
That's okay as we lost our place we lost our page
In the Book of Life we once embraced I feel my mind has been misplaced
As I doze off I am anything
In my mind could be a time machine
This time will never come for free
I give in to Temptation easily
There are lots of things I'd rather be
There are lots of things I'd like to see
That's right I give in too easily
Then I realize the thing I am is me
I can't change that
Is a matter of fact
The quiet’s not my habitat
You say there's nothing wrong with that
But in my head I hear ten thousand voices screaming out at me I'm going mad
Thank you friend for being here tonight i'm really glad

We drive alone in your old corvette
The best night that two friends could get
Watching the back road sunset
Empty tree silhouettes

I'm sitting here wondering if it's killing or murdering
I'm looking thinking over words I never even thought I'd sing
I makeup, I break up
Every moment into hours in 2 hours
I'll be leaving the city to meet the flowers
On a road paved
On a book page
I have one friend with me all the words fade
We’re just talking and talking all night until we see the sunlight

(X2)
We've been driving down this road for hours
Old Friends new times now we’re
Singing along our favorite songs
It's dusk we're singing till Dawn

(X2)
We drive alone in your old corvette
The best night that two friends could get
Watching the back road sunset
Empty tree silhouettes
