1978 December

歌曲歌詞

The highway that leads me back to the town that I come from

It runs dark and twisted through the night

I'm riding with my windows down it's a cool August drive

But the wind's against my face and I'm alright

I can see the stars I can almost touch the moon

The trees bow to welcome me back home

It's been such a long time since I drove 18 to daddy's drive

Yeah so much has changed since I've been gone

I hope they remember 1978 December

I came out screaming at the world determined to be heard

Relentless in my fever and my burning desire to leave here

If I'd only known there'd be no place like home

1978 December

The city has a way of swallowing you whole

And like the tide it can pull you in too far

By the time you realize you've drifted out to sea

You've damn near forgotten who you are

Help me remember 1978 December

I came out screaming at the world determined to be heard

Relentless in my fever and my burning desire to leave here

If I'd only known there'd be no place like home

Daddy met me at the door he said it's about time

I thought you'd never break away from your city life
