On my way up north

Up on the Ventura

I pulled back the hood

And I was talking to you And I knew then it would be

A life long thing

But I didn't know that we

We could break a silver lining And I'm so sad like a good book

I can't put this day back

A sorta fairytale with you

A sorta fairytale with you Things you said that day

Up on the 101

The girl had come undone

I tried to downplay it With a bet about us

You said that you'd take it

As long as I could

I could not erase it And I'm so sad like a good book

I can't put this day back

A sorta fairytale with you

A sorta fairytale with you And I ride along side

And I rode along side you then

And I rode along side

Till you lost me there in the open road And I rode along side

Till the honey spread itself so thin

For me to break your bread

For me to take your word I had to steal it And I'm so sad like a good book

I can't put this day back

A sorta fairytale with you

I could pick back up whenever I feel Down New Mexico way

Something about the open road

I knew that he was

Looking for some Indian blood And find a little in you find a little

In me we may be

On this road but we're just impostors

In this country you know So we go along and we said we'd fake it

Feel better with Oliver stone

Till I almost smacked him

Seemed right that night and I don't know what takes hold

Out there in the desert cold

These guys think they must

Try and just get over on us And I'm so sad like a good book

I can't put this day back

A sorta fairytale with you

A sorta fairytale with you And I was ridin' by, ridin' along side

For a while till you lost me

And I was ridin' by, ridin' along

Till you lost me, till you lost me In the rear view

You lost me, I said Way up north I took my day

All in all was a pretty nice day

And I, I put the hood right back where

You could taste heaven perfectly Feel out the summer breeze

Didn't know when we'd be back

And I, I don't, didn't think

We'd end up like, lying there
