green - turnpike gates lyrics

Loading...

we were green
we thought we knew it all when we were 15
city kids unsure
of what we had, but we knew that we wanted more
we were green
river rats, we hid away our dreams
when it got dark, we buried them somewhere in juniata park

and when the orange sun rolled down delaware avenue
we helped each other dig all morning
it’s not like we had something else to do

we were green
there was so much time and so much to be seen
we could fly away
would that change the way we think or speak today
we were green
when you’re playing in the dirt, it’s hard to stay clean
we stood real tall
but when the el shakes the ground, it’s easy to fall

(chorus)

we were green
raised in corner bars by poker machines
we doubled down
held our breath and dared not make a sound
we were green
etched our names in concrete to be seen
they’re all long gone
but the streets still remain, they sing our song

(chorus)
