Jackson Browne - The Barricades Of Heaven Lyrics
Running down around the towns along the shoreWhen I was sixteen and on my ownNo, I couldnt tell you what the hell those brakes were forI was just trying to hear my songJimmy found his own sweet sound and won that free guitarWed all get in the van and playLife became the paradox, the bear, the rouge et noirAnd the stretch of road running to l.a.Pages turningPages we were years from learningStraight into the night our hearts were flungBetter bring your own redemption when you comeTo the barricades of heaven where Im fromAll the world was shining from those hillsThe stars above and the lights belowAmong those there to test their fortunes and their willsI lost track of the score long agoPages turningPages we were years from learningStraight into the night our hearts were flungBetter bring your own redemption when you comeTo the barricades of heaven where Im fromChildhood comes for me at nightVoices of my friendsYour face bathing me in lightHope that never endsPages turningPages torn and pages burningFaded pages, open in the sunBetter bring your own redemption when you comeTo the barricades of heaven where Im from.Better bring your own redemption when you comeTo the barricades of heaven where Im from.
