Air in my lungs 'til the road begins
As the last of the bugs leave their homes again
And I'm splittin' the road down the middle
For a minute, the world seemed so simple

Air in my lungs 'til the road begins
As the last of the bugs leave their homes again
And I'm splittin' the road down the middle
For a minute, the world seemed so simple
[Verse 2]
Feel the rush of my blood, I'm seventeen again
I am not scared of death, I've got dreams again
It's just me and the curve of the valley
And there is meanin' on earth, I am happy
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh
[Chorus]
Passed Alger Brook Road, I'm over the bridge
A minute from home, but I feel so far from it
The death of my dog, the stretch of my skin
It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again
The things that I lost here, the people I knew
They got me surrounded for a mile or two
The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel
I'm back between villages, and everything's still
[Bridge: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
When I, for me personally
I found a town big enough for anything that I want
I mean, I'm not a city girl, ha-ha-ha, by any means
Strafford, it still has a lot of meaning to me
Because I grew up there
Well, I guess it's a small— (Ah, ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
A small community of, uh, people that really look out for each other (Ah, ah, ah)
And that's the same way with anybody that needs anything
This— this community is there to help
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ooh (Woah)
Ah-oh
[Outro]
The things that I lost here, the people I knew
They got me surrounded for a mile or two
Left at the graveyard, I'm driving past ghosts
Their arms are extended, my eyes start to close
The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel
I'm back between villages, and everything's still
Hewayê di nav lepên min de diçû rê
Wekî ku çuçikên paşîn dîsa malên xwe dihêlin
I'm ez splittin 'riya navîn
Ji bo deqeyek, cîhan pir hêsan xuya bû
[Ayetek 2]
Rûkê xwîna min hîs bikin, ez heftê dîsa me
Ez ji mirinê ditirsim, min dîsa xewnên min kir
Ew tenê ez û curve of the Valley
Û wateya li ser rûyê erdê heye, ez kêfxweş im
[Pêş-chorus]
Oh-Oh, Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, Oh, OH
[Qoro]
Riya Alger-ê derbas bû, ez li ser pira me
Deqeyek ji malê, lê ez ji wê pir dûr hîs dikim
Mirinê kûçikê min, dirêjahiya çermê min
Ew hemî ji min re şuştin, ez dîsa hêrs im
Tiştên ku min li vir winda kir, mirovên ku min dizanibû
Wan ji min re dorpêç kir ku mîlî an du
Otomobîl di berevajî de ye, ez grippin 'wheel
Ez vegeriyam nav gundan, û her tişt hîn jî
[Bridge: Hazel Lewis, Melvin Coburn, Noah Kahan]
Gava ku ez, ji bo min kesane
Min ji bo tiştek ku ez dixwazim bajarekî mezin dît
Ez wateyê, ez ne keçek bajêr, ha-ha, bi her awayî
Strafford, ew hîn jî gelek wate ji min re heye
Ji ber ku ez li wir mezin bûm
Welê, ez texmîn dikim ku ew piçûk e- (AH, AH, AH-AH, AH-AH)
Civakek piçûk a, uh, mirovên ku bi rastî li hevûdu digerin (AH, AH, AH)
Û ew bi heman awayî bi her kesê ku tiştek hewce dike
Ev- Ev civak heye ku alîkariyê bike
Ah, Ah, Ah
Ah, Ah, Ah
Ooh (Woah)
Ah-Oh
[جهر
Tiştên ku min li vir winda kir, mirovên ku min dizanibû
Wan ji min re dorpêç kir ku mîlî an du
Li goristanê hiştin, ez giyayên berê digerim
Çekên wan têne dirêj kirin, çavên min dest bi nêzîkbûnê dikin
Otomobîl di berevajî de ye, ez grippin 'wheel
Ez vegeriyam nav gundan, û her tişt hîn jî
