The Closest Exit - Robert Francis

作曲：Robert Francis

I came out of Spokane one windy night

Looking for seminal landscapes of light

Out the car window I watched the sun ignite

Her body was there in the passenger chair

As she rested her chin on her palm half asleep

The forest was quiet as it was deep and I walked with her

And I wanted her lips like some nicotine fix

As that moment surreal began to exist

I forgot about our past and all her other lovers

And stared like a child into her cursed eyes

Like a cannon extinguished the moment it dies

The mind plays tricks when love is in disguise

The closest exit's behind you let go

I left on the red eye one lonely night

Looking for seminal landscapes of light

Out the plane window I watched the clouds ignite

My hands were like seasons withoudt a divide

Her body rotating her curves were alive

No more a memory somehting filled up inside

Just one hint of reason expelled out like flames

An inferno of guilt as I surrendered to her name

I'd sworn to myself never ever again

But i stared like a child into her cursed eyes

A cannon extinguished the moment it dies

The mind plays tricks when love is in disguise

The closest exits'behind let go

The closest exits'behind

The closest exits'behind let go

The closest exits'behind let go
