ROAD BETWEEN TWO TOWNS
written by john common


that girl behind the bar
she's a lump of stone
when she tells the boys
to all go home
she's wears it beautifully
that permanent frown
and I'm wondering
what would it take
to melt her down?

I grab my coat
and pay my tab
she's behind the bar
counting cash
her eyes are dark
and her hair is brown
and I'm wondering
what it'd be like
to see it down

I walk out
and get in my car
and drive on back
to the way things are
and I see the lights
of my home town
and I'm driving
through the snow
with my window down
