lyrics
it was the age of windows, and your eyes were glued
you pressed your nose to the glass as you look through
it was the peak of the century, and it was limited and flat
on the train to the city, you were the trunk from which the branch line split
and if i were to try to feel that time, i'd feel it far from mine
it was the age of the highway, and your towns were twins
when they built them out they put our family in
it was the peak of the century, moving forward and on track
in the car on the interstate, you watched tv with an antenna in the back
and if i were to try to feel that time, i'd feel it far from mine
it was a page in memory, set into the stack
and when i move past the cornfields they feel so flat
from the age before me, i can almost describe
the view out the window, from chicago to champaign on a drive
and if i were to try to feel that time, i'd feel it far from mine
