Two-thousand-eighteen Shades Of Bromford - Part 21


Today is Thursday, the 9th of August 2018.

Looks like this is going to be a real Thundersday.

No Thunder without Lightning. So guess the city, guess it...


"Bromford"

In the back of a car on a road in the dark,
In the stillicide, silently falling snow,
I have packed everything that I own in a bag,
And I'm driving, I'm driving to Bromford,
A poem for leaving, a reason to go,
So I'm driving, I'm driving to Bromford.

'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but me,
And I can't keep dreaming that I'm free, dreaming that I'm free,
I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Bromford,
'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...

And oh, I've been dumb, I've been perfectly beautiful,
Lain on my back buying lovers with stealth,
But I'm sick of you all, and I'm sick of opinions,
And I'm sick of this war I wage on myself...
I don't know why I'm so gripped to go there
A universe riddle that only I know?
Mr. Robert he says, "It's all in the head!"
Tell me, Phaedrus, what's good, is it Bromford?

'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but me,
And I can't keep dreaming that I'm free, dreaming that I'm free,
I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Bromford,
'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...
In Bromford.

Why is copy and paste and search so easy these days... always... wondered...
