On a Thursday afternoon I can see the sun and moon Shadows strobe at 55 Dash after dash Dash after line Telephone poles keep the time A rhythmic metronome of kinds It's the same beat as this song And might just last a lifetime long Where hours can come and go Where hours can come and go On end, on I saw the light Since dancing in the night We played boxes like drums In the car On a Thursday afternoon When the wind begins to swoon A sea of birds like waves in flight Dash after dash 'til out of sight And I saw the white Since dancing in the night We played boxes like drums In the car We drove 7 thousand months afar We played boxes like drums In the car On a Thursday afternoon I can see the sun and moon Shadows strobe at 55 Dash after dash Dash after line On a Thursday afternoon On a Thursday afternoon On a Thursday afternoon Dash after dash Dash after line I saw the white Since dancing in the night We played boxes like drums In the car
