Lyrics
[Intro] (Distant electric piano and soft percussive taps, organ swelling in slow 6/8) [Verse 1] Midnight on the South Side, rain on the stone Walking past the doorway, wandering alone A neon sign flickering, a shadow on the floor I hear a distant melody behind a heavy door [Chorus] Where does the road go when the lights turn low? Searching for an answer in a slow, steady flow Out in the open air, heavy and deep Got a pocket full of questions that I gotta keep [Verse 2] (Curiously layered guitar enters with a drifting organ) Smoke in the rafters, amber in the glass Watching all the troubles of yesterday pass A harmonica sighing like a wind through the street Looking for the place where the shadows meet [Guitar & Harmonica Solo] (Wandering harmonica and explorative guitar call-and-response) [Chorus] Where does the road go when the lights turn low? Searching for an answer in a slow, steady flow Out in the open air, heavy and deep Got a pocket full of questions that I gotta keep [Outro] (Electric piano fades out with soft percussive taps and organ) Just seeking... Down the long dark road... Slow 6/8... fading out.
