lirik lagu goodnight america – mary chapin carpenter
i’m standing at a traffic light somewhere in west l.a.
waiting for the sign to change then i’ll be on my way
the noise, the heat, the crush of cars just robs me of my nerve
and someone yells and blasts their h-rn and pins me to the curb
i’m a stranger here, no one you would know
my ship has not come in but i keep hoping though
and i keep looking past, the sun that sets above
saying to myself, goodnight america
and i’m driving into houston on a rain slicked texas road
land so flat and sky so dark, i say a prayer to float
should all at once the sanasito surge beyond it’s banks
like noah reaching higher ground i’d offer up my thanks
’cause i’m a stranger here, no one you would know
i’m just p-ssing through, i am therefore i go
the moon rose in the east but now it’s right above
as i say aloud, goodnight america
midnight, it’s hard to see the stars
out on a highway near atlanta
full of strip malls and used cars
first light just roll your window down
and smell the salty air
perfume of charleston town
i’m looking with a pilgrim’s eyes upon some promised land
and dreaming with my heart outstretched as if it were my hand
and i’ll hit the cross bronx just in time to beat the rush hour lock
i’ve got no clue what time it is from this world’s busted clock
i’m a stranger here, no one you would know
i’m from somewhere else, well, isn’t everybody though?
i don’t know where i’ll be when the sun comes up
until then sweet dreams, goodnight america
