The View Between Villages (Extended)

[00:16.86] Air in my lungs 'til the road begins

[00:24.56] As the last of the bugs leave their homes again

[00:34.66] And I'm splittin' the road down the middle

[00:43.43] For a minute, the world seemed so simple

[00:53.25] Feel the rush of my blood, I'm seventeen again

[01:02.28] I am not scared of death, I've got dreams again

[01:11.32] It's just me and the curve of the valley

[01:20.64] And there is meanin' on earth, I am happy

[01:27.68] Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

[01:32.46] Oh, oh, oh

[01:50.25] Passed Alger Brook Road, I'm over the bridge

[01:56.35] A minute from home, but I feel so far from it

[02:02.47] The death of my dog, the stretch of my skin

[02:09.12] It's all washin' over me, I'm angry again

[02:14.98] The things that I lost here, the people I knew

[02:21.34] They got me surrounded for a mile or two

[02:27.72] The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel

[02:33.83] I'm back between villages, and everything's still

[03:07.31] "When I, for me personally

[03:12.87] I found a town big enough for anything that I want

[03:18.20] I mean, I'm not a city girl, by any means"

[03:24.83] "Strafford, it still has a lot of meaning to me

[03:28.02] Because I grew up there

[03:30.68] Well, I guess it's a small—

[03:32.54] A small community of, uh, people that really look out for each other

[03:38.64] And that's the same way with anybody that needs anything

[03:42.62] This— this community is there to help"

[03:44.22] Ah, ah, ah

[03:50.07] Ah, ah, ah

[03:54.31] Ooh (Woah)

[04:01.48] Ah-oh

[04:07.86] The things that I lost here, the people I knew

[04:14.25] They got me surrounded for a mile or two

[04:20.61] Left at the graveyard, I'm driving past ghosts

[04:26.98] Their arms are extended, my eyes start to close

[04:33.36] The car's in reverse, I'm grippin' the wheel

[04:39.74] I'm back between villages, and everything's still
