The Alternate Routes - Already November lyrics

I saw you three times In a face in the crowd Called out your name Just as clear and a loud As I could without thinking It wouldn't be you But a lie in my head Was a hope that died true I saw what I thought Was that look in your eyes On the face of a stranger man Standing in line And all I know now When it comes to you Is that I ran outta stars For one wish to come true And gone are the days when I still had the time And please tell my mother I'm doing alright But it's slow, slow and gone is the life that I've known The life that I've known It's already November We've been driving all night Never thought that we'd bring it this far In a working man's town Thought I'd see you around On the shotgun side With my own two eyes Then I saw you three times In a rear view mirror Like the broken white stripes in the dark Could've sworn it was you By the light of the moon Like a Tennessee cross in a fog And gone are the days when I still had the time And please tell my mother I'm doing alright But it's slow, slow and gone is the life that I've known The life that I've known And gone are the days when I still had the time And please tell my mother I'm doing alright But it's slow, slow and gone is the life that I've known The life that I've known
