[00:26.82] Kerouac dreamed a poets dream
[00:31.63] He said the poem comes from where you've been
[00:37.26] It's in a notion, a trick of fate
[00:42.42] It's in taking to the road when the road can't wait
[01:02.77] It's a long white line along a holy road
[01:08.11] A noble highway made of gold
[01:13.28] Too young to die and you're mad to live
[01:18.14] You want everything there is that life can give
[01:25.85] It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
[01:31.07] You go all the way and come back again
[01:36.00] But it's what you do and it's what you learn
[01:41.72] And it's how the scene plays out with every turn
[02:11.77] They say you burn when you fly too high
[02:17.06] Better to burn than never try
[02:22.28] Maybe you'll fall, and maybe you'll fly
[02:27.32] Maybe you'll rise above it all and touch the sky
[02:34.67] You may get it right, you may get it wrong
[02:40.14] But you'll do what you do just to get along
[02:45.06] 'Cause a lesson learned is a favour owed
[02:51.36] And it's payback time when you're on the road
[02:58.52] It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
[03:03.75] You go all the way and come back again
[03:08.47] But it's what you do, and it's what you learn
[03:14.26] And it's how the scene plays out with every turn
[03:18.85] It's a beautiful dream with a sad refrain
[03:24.15] You go all the way and come back again
[03:28.94] But it's what you do, and it's what you learn
[03:34.78] And it's how the scene plays out with every turn
