Death Cab For Cutie Bixby Canyon Bridge Lyrics

Bixby Canyon Bridge Lyrics

I descended a dusty gravel ridge

Beneath the Bixby Canyon Bridge

Until I eventually arrived

At the place where your soul had died



And barefoot in the shallow creek

I grabbed some stones from underneath

And waited for you to speak to me



And the silence, it became so very clear

That you had long ago disappeared

I cursed myself for being surprised

That this didn't play like it did in my mind



All the way from San Francisco

As I chased the end of your road

'Cause I've still got miles to go



And I want to know my fate

If I keep up this way

And it's hard to want to stay awake



When everyone you meet

They all seem to be asleep

And you wonder if you're missing your dream

You can't see your dream

You can't see your dream

You just can't see your dream



Dream, dream, dream

Dream, dream, dream

Dream, dream, dream

Dream, dream, dream



And then it started getting dark

And I trudged back to where the car was parked

No closer to any kind of truth

As I must assume was the case with you
