Sullivan Lane by Dar Williams Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She wasn't one of the misscripted lovers
That moved with the others
She didn't know why
They would make fun of the way she would druther
Just float up and hover between earth and sky
[Verse 2]
I wasn't able to keep my mind stable
Condition was labeled acute A.D.D.
They saw the problems and tried hard to solve 'em
But she only noticed the goodness in me
[Chorus]
So down Sullivan Lane we walked in the rain
Like sister and brother
Down Sullivan Lane we slipped from the pain
Right into the other world
[Verse 3]
When we first saw you you were cruisin' the blue
You were simple as dew you were floating away
You were like her and me spaced out as you could be
We knew that frequency
Come out and play
[Chorus]
So down Sullivan Lane we walked in the rain
Like sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane we slipped from the pain
Right into the other world
[Bridge]
They taught you how to cope, taught you to tow the rope
Moved you away far far away
But when you think of me tune in that frequency
Come out and play, come out and play
[Chorus]
'Cause down Sullivan Lane we're callin' your name
Your sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane, please come back again
Come back to the other world
Down Sullivan Lane we're callin' your name
Your sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane, please come back again
Come back to the other world
She wasn't one of the misscripted lovers
That moved with the others
She didn't know why
They would make fun of the way she would druther
Just float up and hover between earth and sky
[Verse 2]
I wasn't able to keep my mind stable
Condition was labeled acute A.D.D.
They saw the problems and tried hard to solve 'em
But she only noticed the goodness in me
[Chorus]
So down Sullivan Lane we walked in the rain
Like sister and brother
Down Sullivan Lane we slipped from the pain
Right into the other world
[Verse 3]
When we first saw you you were cruisin' the blue
You were simple as dew you were floating away
You were like her and me spaced out as you could be
We knew that frequency
Come out and play
[Chorus]
So down Sullivan Lane we walked in the rain
Like sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane we slipped from the pain
Right into the other world
[Bridge]
They taught you how to cope, taught you to tow the rope
Moved you away far far away
But when you think of me tune in that frequency
Come out and play, come out and play
[Chorus]
'Cause down Sullivan Lane we're callin' your name
Your sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane, please come back again
Come back to the other world
Down Sullivan Lane we're callin' your name
Your sisters and brothers
Down Sullivan Lane, please come back again
Come back to the other world
