Black Derby Jacket Lyrics

But all I read was maps of the road

And I was three thousand miles away from you

All the while I was twenty-two

What do you do to know who you are?

The best way for me to drop out on tour

You went to Upstate NxY (New York) to go to school

To secure the roll with your parents

I got a new perspective on you

All the good and bad that we went through

I know you better than you know you

'Cause I got a new perspective on you

I never needed much, I never liked to loom

But a gesture can get me from across the room

The first night we talked until while the sun caught up

Transparent people melting all around us

You left in a plane, I left in a van

Played nightclub house-parties and auditoriums

Saw Germany England Italy with my band

I know you better than your new friends

I got a new perspective on you

All the good and bad that we went through

I know you better than you know you

'Cause I got a new perspective on you

Ford Econdlane September '93

Driving 10 hours until my eyes are blurry

3 packs of Winstons and a bag of seeds

Tapes of "x" and a thermos of coffee

6 weeks on and 10 days off

Then I go back on the road for another show

This is all that I've ever done

Girl I got nothing to fall back on

"But I got a new perspective on you All the good and bad that we went through

I know you better than you know you 'Cause I got a new perspective on you"
