Lyrics:
Somewhere there's a country You remember from your youth On the surface of this country Is the one they built on top of it The highway leads to everything Except for what they've buried underneath it There is a country made of telegrams and tailcoats And nobody to grieve it But when the sun is getting lower Then the highway marks the graves And the taillights, they circle Like the roses of an infinite bouquet And everybody leaves taillights For the grey ghosts of railways and candle holders There's been an accident a mile away from here I heard the sound of sirens Then they turn back again and as they disappeared I saw a trail behind them You say, 'The wind is up, it's out collecting lives' 'An exit night is coming through' Oh, the wind is up and moving Like no wind I've ever known The page that I was reading Was the first that had to go But still I kept on reading Like the dead that have a memory of living Because the wind is here to take the thing I don't think I am ready to be giving And Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Juliet? She flew off of the table, out the window Now she's mixing with the dead Oh, won't you make her go away? I am not ready for her yet Oh make her go away, I am not ready I'm not ready for her yet And the wind is up, it's out collecting lives An exit night is coming through An exit night is coming through Exit night has come for you Oh exit light, exit moon Tell me why Why so soon? I don't know I don't know And oh, go to sleep Tomorrow the day will repeat I will read 'til your memories fly away There's no need to worry I will read until your memories leave your brain
