Rearview Gold: lyrics

  1. The gas tank is full and the window is down
  2. I’m leaving the bones of this quiet town
  3. The pines are just ink blots against the deep blue
  4. I’m trading the old life for something brand new
  5. The sun hits the glass in a trick of the light
  6. It’s painting the gravel and rust out of sight
  7. Rearview gold
  8. Distance makes the ruins shine
  9. Rearview gold
  10. But none of that beauty is mine
  11. It’s a long-distance glow in a frame on the door
  12. I don’t want to live in those hills anymore
  13. Rearview gold
  14. I’m leaving it all behind
  15. My hands on the wheel feel steady and strange
  16. Counting the miles as the radio claims
  17. That ghosts only follow if you look their way
  18. But I’m watching the orange turn into a grey
  19. It’s easy to love what you can’t touch no more
  20. With my foot pressed down hard to the floor
  21. Rearview gold
  22. Distance makes the ruins shine
  23. Rearview gold
  24. But none of that beauty is mine
  25. It’s a long-distance glow in a frame on the door
  26. I don’t want to live in those hills anymore
  27. Rearview gold
  28. I’m leaving it all behind
  29. If I turned the car, if I went back down
  30. The dust would be grey and the houses be brown
  31. It’s only the parting that gives it the grace
  32. Of a holy and wonderful place
  33. Rearview gold
  34. Distance makes the ruins shine
  35. Rearview gold
  36. But none of that beauty is mine
  37. It’s a long-distance glow in a frame on the door
  38. I don’t want to live in those hills anymore
  39. Rearview gold
  40. I’m leaving it all behind
