Fountains Of Wayne Fire In The Canyon Lyrics

Fire In The Canyon Lyrics

There's fire in the canyon

Rain on the plain

And an eerie kind of
sadness

On the highway today

Was it driving together

That
drove us apart

Or did we change direction

Chasing arrows and
hearts



We've been wandering alone such a long time

Lose our
way as we go town to town

Believe us to be born into a path straight and
narrow

On every crooked road we travel down



And I'm checking
out the road signs

Highway hotels

And their air-conditioned
cable-ready cold padded cells

And we read them like stories

In
trash magazines

We ain't really sure what it means



We've
been wandering alone such a long time

Lose our way as we go town to
town

Believe us to be born into a path straight and narrow

On every
crooked road we travel down



Well I'll ride this motorway

For
a thousand miles a day

Til the road runs out of blacktop

Or I will
this world away

And each town is steeped in rain

And I know each
one by name

Cause this road is wrapped around me

And I wear it like
a chain



We've been wandering alone such a long time

Lose our
way as we go town to town

Believe us to be born into a path straight and
narrow

On every crooked road we travel down

Believe us to be born
into a path straight and narrow

On every crooked road we travel down
