Amy Ray, Brandi Carlile - Subway lyrics

In the Geminid shower, you flew
Away through Orion's sky
The maverick queen of our galaxy
Play these tunes I wrote for her, you and
Your golden ear and flare for words
Tell us how you hung the stars
'Cause, I am useless in this aging hour
Of broken pipe dreams in a
Skyline of water towers i crave the night
Can't shake it from my sight
You knew me every time
You knew me every time
On the way, I fell for every mountain rangе
Every endless sky, еvery painted pony plain
Every arrowhead this kid could fly
But on the hoof, I found New York
Getting groomed for some big tour
Holding hands with girls down
The streets and avenues
Make it count in the music biz
And that's what you did
But me, I am still wandering
'Cause, I crave the trying
Can't shake it from my mind
You saw me every time you saw me every time

"Don't take the subway, baby, let's
Just walk, " we'd say
'til our longing turns to day
Remember when Alphabet City was a
Wilderness to you and me
Before Rudy had his way

And they kept it all shut down
From Jones Beach to the Mercury Lounge
After you left, the shit really hit the fan
So we took it to the streets
Crying, "No justice, no peace"
All for one, one for all, here comes the show
Hey, turn on your radio
Yeah, we took it to the streets
Freedom is not free

"Don't take the subway, baby, let's
Just walk, " we'd say
'til our longing turns to day
Remember when Alphabet City was a
Wilderness to you and me
Before Rudy had his way

This Georgia girl has got it bad for New York
