lyrics

‘Cisco Lights

‘Cisco lights -a- shinin’ down on,
road signs behind us sayin,’
we’ve never been down this road.

Telephone polls and red stop signs,
We watched the sun set and we watched it rise.
If we counted the smiles I think I’d run out of time with you.

And that’s never, never, never something I intend to do.
I never, never, never want to run out of time with you.

I’ve got a box a dried flowers, I’ve got a box of love notes.
If I counted the hours of writing love songs-
Half-ass rymes and heart felt poems- its true:

If I counted ‘em all I think I’d run out of time with you,
And that’s never, never, never something I intend to do.
If I counted ‘em all I think I’d run out of time with you,
And that’s never, never, never something I intend to do.

Lookin’ down on the city from Alamo Square,
No stars in the sky but we know they’re there.
Just like all the lights in the windows where there must be warmth inside.

Another journey complete, another map marked,
Another mile behind, but its only the start:

Don’t bother countin’ ‘em all ‘cause we may only get a few,
And I never, never, never want to run out of time with you.
Don’t bother countin’ ‘em all ‘cause we may only get a few,
And I never, never, never want to run out of time with you.
