Testi

Where there used to be a gravel road
Now pavement held domain
Have I been gone that long I thought
The answer quickly came
Verified each time I'd steal a glance
Out the windows of my car
And I knew then time was still in charge
Even though I'd journeyed far
So I drove on down the pavement
Where the gravel was back then
Back to memories of the sixties
Of the way things were back when
So long ago one final glance
In my rearview said goodbye
Not knowing what my future held
The wherefores or the whys
Now the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of way back when
Most of them recalling memories
Family home and teenage friends
God how the years have flown by
We thought they'd never end
Now the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of way back when
What became of my friend Denny
Did the majors ever call
Andy, Mark, Wayne, Al and Wally
How we all loved to play ball
Some still on life's long journey
Some whose journeys found its end
But all of them still with me
On this old road once again
And now I'm at the turnoff
Heading slowly into town
But before I reach the Main Street
I stop I turn around
Take the road to where the stately stones
Hold fast from year to year
Names chiseled on each granite face
The names of those held dear
So that's why I really make this trip
Like other friends of mine
To pay long overdue respects
Come back from time to time
To relive old childhood memories
Some of theirs, mostly mine
Now the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of bygone times
Yeah the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of way back when
Most of them recalling memories
Family home, teenage friends
God how the years have flown by
We thought they'd never end
Now the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of way back when
Yeah the tires on the pavement
Sing the songs of way back when
