My heads against the window Headlights hurting tired eyes Street lamps breaking shadows Stars missing from the sky One in a hundred million Blinded by naivety And its just my opinion But nothing's making sense to me No more fast lane no more slow trains home I couldn't remain in those dull grey tones So I put my roots down in this small town and it's not so bad I've learned that less is more than everything I had While city dreamers are dreaming in their air conditioned cells I'll be down here taking all this for myself Cos all I need are back roads and views and I'll be alright Yeh I've been saved by the quiet life Ooo yeh Now I'm reminiscing About the times in years gone by Served time in the city Never asking myself why Spent my time pretending Meanwhile planning my escape Feeling my patience ending Dreams of the country taking shape No more fast lane no more slow trains home I couldn't remain in those dull grey tones So I put my roots down in this small town and it's not so bad I've learned that less is more than everything I had While city dreamers are dreaming in their air conditioned cells I'll be down here taking all this for myself Cos all I need are back roads and views and I'll be alright Yeh I've been saved by the quiet life Yeh I landed squarely on what people rarely find And it's not perfection but I don't really mind So I put my roots down in this small town and it's not so bad I've learned that less is more than everything I had While city dreamers are dreaming in their air conditioned cells I'll be down here taking all this for myself Cos all I need are back roads and views and I'll be alright Cos all I need are back roads and views and I'll be alright Yeh I've been saved by the quiet life
