I'll take the alleyway today
No need for streets they just compete with other people
Walking side by side on sidewalks
With their clocks all ticking simultaneously
That's where i'll be
Stick to the alleyway with me
There is a way
Another way to go and i'll take it
A secret way
Some people know about but no one ever sees
You will find it if your heart is open
And i'm hoping it will lead you straight to me
Fast or slow
Take the shortcuts and side roads
Pay no mind to the signs or highway lines
We'll get there our way
I'll take the train tracks today
The ones that run behind the houses down on pine street
Traveling side by side like lovers
Never crossing one another
So to speak
And i'll walk these tracks forever even
If the weather doesn't change in weeks
And though they were deserted long ago
It doesn't hurt to know them - time's free
(fast or slow
Take the shortcuts and side roads
Pay no mind to the signs or highway lines
We'll get there our way)
