| | Goodnight America Lyrics Artist(Band):Mary Chapin Carpenter
I'm standing at a traffic light somewhere in west L.A. Waiting for the sign to change then I'll be on my way The noise, the heat, the crush of cars just robs me of my nerve Then someone yells and blasts their horn and pins me to the curb I'm a stranger here, no one you would know My ship has not come in, but I keep hoping though And I keep looking past the sun that sets above Saying to myself goodnight America And I am driving into Houston on a rain-slicked Texas road Land so flat and sky so dark I say a prayer to float Should all at once the San Jacinto surge beyond its banks Like Noah reaching higher ground I'd offer up my thanks 'Cause I'm a stranger here, no one you would know I'm just passing through, I am therefore I go The moon rose in the east, but now it's right above As I say aloud goodnight America Midnight, it's hard to see the stars Out on a highway near Atlanta full of strip malls & used cars First light, just roll your window down and smell The salty air perfume of Charleston town Well I'm looking with a pilgrim's eyes upon some promised land I'm dreaming with my heart outstretched as if it were my hand And I'll hit the Cross Bronx just in time to beat the rush hour lock But I got no clue what time it is from this world's busted clock Yeah I'm a stranger here, no one you would know I'm from somewhere else, isn't everybody though I don't know where I'll be when the sun comes up But till then sweet dreams, goodnight America If you find some error in Goodnight America Lyrics, would you please submit your corrections to me?
