Somewhere Better Songtext
von Aurelian Blue

He took a walk into the deep end
And left a notebook on the shore
Before the cops could even find it
The sun had got there first
And bleached the words into a blur


Mama says he′s somewhere better
The coroner just says he drowned
When we were kids we built a ladder to the sky
I scrapped the wood for something sound

We took the long way to the diner
When summer had us by the throat
We passed the billboard asking where we plan to spend eternity
I guess it's nice to think they know

But then the day was never ending
And all the roads just circled back
The town became the kind of story only Steinbeck could have told
And I swear I could hear him laughing
