Silkworm - Roots lyrics

Oh, to stand on the Higgins Bridge as the lights go down Just watching the river flow, on our last night in town If you're ever gonna get away, you better learn to run But if the lessons are coming slow, don't be upset if that just means you're home If I leave work early one day, on the 31st floor You can stand aside, call the cops, as I break for the door You can look for me upfront and main, but I'm not there, I'm gone None of us is there anymore, will the last one remember to turn the lights off? There's a Puerto Rican in this bar, she's thinking about San Juan If I could, you know, I'd wave a wand and send her home But first, you know, I'd send myself back where the river flows But I can't even see that road, "When" is a secret, and that means nobody knows
