Stephin Merritt - Crowd of Drifters lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes the road is too long You meet all kinds of people Some of them cast no shadow They have no reflections [Bridge 1] Take a look in your photo book I'm not there anymore [Chorus] I was a traveling salesman I got lost on the backroads Fell in with a crowd of drifters [Verse 2] Sometimes the sun is too bright And it burns you like acid You get to love driving at night The moon is so close you can kiss it [Bridge 2] I used to remember you smiling and waving But I don't think I can anymore [Chorus] [Verse 3] We come unnoticed at sundown At the start of a blackout We sit by fires all over town And it's over by morning [Bridge 3] Sometimes we bring in the rat and the wolf And sometimes the worm [Chorus]
