about

please enjoy the not-very-good verse which i cut for the final version

lyrics

goodbye little sister, hello
it’s been too long, there’s someone i should get to know.
been driving all night, and there’s miles to go
been driving all night, and there’s miles to go

well i, i am struck dumb so i write up a song
i wanted to tell you without the words coming out wrong
it'll be hard but i know you're strong
it'll be hard but i know you're strong

when all looks empty and the magic is gone
it’s only the beautiful blackness before the bright dawn
you’ll be alright, if you’ll only hold on
you’ll be alright, if you’ll only hold on

like the fog on the glass on a rainy day
or the pictures that hang in the hall
there is something in you feels like home for me
forever and all

goodbye little sister, hello
i can hold on if you want now, or i can let go.
just close your eyes, and focus on the car radio
just close your eyes, and focus on the car radio

the woods are lovely, dark and deep,
but i have promises to keep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep,
and miles to go before I sleep.
