Somewhere North Of Nashville

Album: Western Stars (2019)

  • Came into town with a pocketful of songs
    I made the rounds but I didn't last long
    Now I'm out on this highway with a bone-cold chill
    Here, somewhere north of Nashville

    I lie awake in the middle of the night
    Makin' a list of things that I didn't do right
    With you at the top of a long page filled
    Here, somewhere north of Nashville

    For the deal I made, the price was strong
    I traded you for this song

    We woke each morning with hearts filled
    Bluebird of love on the windowsill
    Now the heart's unsteady, and the night is still
    All I've got's this melody, and time to kill
    Here, somewhere north of Nashville
    Here, somewhere north of Nashville
    Here, somewhere north of Nashville Writer/s: Bruce Springsteen
