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
