Up This Road

I’ve been down this road before
I know I’ve seen this sun
I’ve been down this road before
The night I thought I’d won

Been around right here before
I know I’m not alone
Been around right here before
Some time spent on unknown

No footprints where I’m going
Won’t you come along?
Catch me in the wind, on the buildings
You can’t shake me
Feel me, smell me with the rain
In your sleep, wax, and blood, and brain
I never meant for you to be a memory

Got a dog, big painting, cold cup of coffee
Got lost, I unwound and now they can’t stop me
Jaw drop, just watch me

I’ve been up this road before
Music dreaming next to me
I’ve been up this road before
I was in love suddenly

Been around right here before
Jazz flows through my mind
Been around right here before
A night spent inside time

I’ve never been right here before
I sometimes dream of jazz
Got a dog, big painting, cold cup of coffee
Bent straw, missed mouth, they’re watching
