Turnpike Lyrics

I was in love and I wasn't afraid
We were just children acting a play
(...) went away
What is the reason you wouldn’t stay?

When I returned to Boston
Stood in the place where my love was lost in
Oh baby, what’s it costing me?

Looked for your face in the railway station
Thought it was you, but now I'm mistaking
Where do I look in this great big nation for you?

Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitchhike
Ain't no love like me and you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitchhike
Ain't no love like me and you

I was a clown in your circus parade
You were the tamer, I was to tame
You were the one that started the flame Why can't the love that we had be the same?

Grabbing the Southside ferry
(...) my soul with a bottle of sherry
Oh baby, don't you burry me

Telephone calls and I made it to Boston
Have you returned to your home in Austin?
Oh baby, how it’s costing me

Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitchhike
Ain't no love like me and you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitchhike
Ain't no love like me and you

Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
I'm stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
