Thunder Road by Bruce Springsteen

The screen door slams

Mary's dress sways

Like a vision she dances across the porch

As the radio plays

Roy orbison singing for the lonely

Hey that's me and i want you only

Don't turn me home again

I just can't face myself alone again

Don't run back inside

Darling you (1)________ just what i'm here for

So you're scared and you're thinking

That maybe we ain't that young anymore

Show a little faith, there's magic in the night

You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright

Oh and that's alright with me



You can hide `neath your covers

And study your pain

Make crosses (2)________ your lovers

Throw roses in the rain

Waste your summer praying in vain

For a savior to rise (3)________ these streets

Well now i'm no hero

That's understood

All the redemption i can offer, girl

Is beneath this dirty hood

With a (4)____________ to make it good somehow

Hey what else can we do now?

Except roll down the window

And let the (5)________ blow

Back your hair

Well the night's busting open

These two lanes will take us anywhere

We got one last chance to make it real

To trade in (6)__________ wings on some wheels

Climb in back

Heaven's (7)______________ on down the tracks

Oh-oh (8)________ take my hand

Riding out tonight to case the promised land

Oh-oh thunder road, oh thunder road oh thunder road

Lying out there like a killer in the sun

Hey i know it's (9)________ we can make it if we run

Oh thunder road, sit tight take hold

Thunder road



Well i got this guitar

And i learned how to make it talk

And my car's out back

If you're ready to take that long walk

From your front porch to my front seat

The door's open but the ride it ain't free

And i know you're lonely

For words that i ain't spoken

But tonight we'll be free

All the promises'll be broken

There were ghosts in the eyes

Of all the boys you sent away

They haunt this dusty beach road

In the skeleton frames of burned out chevrolets



They scream your name at night in the street

Your graduation gown lies in rags at (10)__________ feet

And in the lonely cool before dawn

You hear their engines roaring on

But when you get to the porch they're gone

On the wind, so mary climb in

It's a town full of losers

And i'm pulling out of here to win.
