I guess we should have gone to Florida
But you said that’s where old folks go to die
And at eighty three, we’re both just spring chickens
We should be living out the best years of our lives

You said let’s go up to the mountains
Take a drive where the air is cool and clear
But there’s a blizzard now, this car is going nowhere
Maybe December was the wrong time of the year,

CHORUS:
Isn’t it all so romantic,
in the back seat of a car like we were kids
I could lie next to you here forever
watching the snow come down

It’s been almost a week, it’s getting colder
Who knows what tomorrow’s luck will bring
Maybe we should get a little closer,
Just in case they don’t find us ‘til the spring

(chorus)

BRIDGE:
You and I have watched the world go ‘round, but it never passed us by
Now that we have seen the mountains, I can’t wait to see the other side

(chorus)

Vs 1
Falls Rd runs down through old Belfast town, that street has stories to tell
Of pipe bombs and bullets and innocent lives
And a darkness that’s still known too well

Vs 2
Theres something profound ‘bout this dirty old town, memories around every bend
People pass by, you can see I their eyes,
The dream of a nation again

CHORUS
The children are starting to laugh once more
There’s a peace that’s fragile and small
Darkenss is lifting, destiny cries
By the mercy of God, there’s a light at the end of the Falls

Vs 3
Tear stained murals, painted in truth look down at the the children at play
Remind them of martyrs, some who died in these streets
And a debt they may never repay
(CHORUS – SOLO)

Bridge:
500 years of passion and tears, fighting for freedom and pride
Each side alone, demanding their home, and the dignity once felt inside

Vs 4
Evening descends, like some long lost friend dimming the scars from the past
The Falls could be quiet for the first time in years,
And there’s a prayer for a peace that will last
(CHORUS)

Bus Station 6am, she keeps her suitcase close by her,
And watches the clock
Ticket is in her hand, hoping they’ll understand
She’s leaving, they can’t make her stop

Stranger comes walking in, guitar case, hat in hand,
He sits down beside her and smiles
She looks at his boots, noticing how much they’ve worn out
From all of the miles

He asks where you from, she says here, but not for long
He’s just passing through town today
She’s never been out of state, he’s played then thousand dates
They’re heading in different ways, with their

chorus
Dreams crossing, dreams crossing
At a crossroads, where they’ve never been
She dreams of leaving, he’s dreaming about home again
Dreams, dreams crossing dreams

She asks him about L.A, he says it’s a great place to visit
But better to leave
He asks what’s new in town, she says nothing ever changed
It’s still just like it used to be

He’s so tired of road life, the loud smokey late nights
He feels like he’s at a dead end
She’s ready for bright lights, , the good life, and new sights
They both start dreaming again, they’ve had

(chorus)

Bus comes, she goes, he’s got time to kill so he
Walks through the old small town streets
The sun’s rising higher, the whole world looks brighter
Because of dreams crossing dreams , they’ve had dreams, dreams crossing dreams
