Mary Chapin Carpenter - Other Streets And Other Towns lyrics
The whippoorwills were crying in the falling rain
 Far away a whistle hailed a passing train
 Out in the country summer was almost gone
 The fields were turning rusty and the hills were turning brown
 Now I think of you when summer stars are on the rise
 I think of you with a bottle of wine and lazy eyes
 Playing rock and roll songs on an old guitar
 Getting drunk and sleeping out in my backyard
 Now sometimes I just lie awake and I hear the wind
 Blowing through the seasons of my heart again
 My dreams are mostly lost and found on other streets,
 In other towns
 But babe, you know, I still look out for you
 The cars were all abandoned on the city streetsMary Chapin Carpenter - Other Streets And Other Towns - http://motolyrics.com/mary-chapin-carpenter/other-streets-and-other-towns-lyrics.html
 When snow had left us stranded then we used our feet
 And wound up drinking whiskey in a crowded bar
 And now when it starts storming I wonder where you are
 'Cause you said that I was crazy to believe in you
 You said to never trust a man who sings the blues
 Well trust and that old guitar was all you'd ever need
 If you found a way to love the girl in me
Chorus:
 Other boys I knew were just like shiny dimes
 Tossed and spent, they came and went a hundred times
 Nothing was as rough on me as giving up on you
 Now it seems like every bar in town's got boys who sing the blues
Chorus:
