The Milk Carton Kids Monterey Lyrics
Monterey by The Milk Carton Kids
[Verse 1]
I can hear the road call
I can hear the road call out my name
A journey made
Mercy paid
An old refrain
To light the way
[Chorus]
I can see the North Star
I can see the North Star overhead
I can see the North Star
I can see the North Star from this bed
Beneath the sky
The night betrayed
Rescued by
The Milky Way
[Verse 2]
Summon out the rain clouds
Someone should hear how loud we sing
Blinded by the notion
Of fog in an ocean, all around
Oh Monterey
How can I say
I'll always stay
And slip away
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
I can show the world, ma'
I can wake the world out from her sleep
I can show the world, ma'
I don't fear the world from my two feet
A prayer to keep
To hide away
Our love will read
The ash and clay
Of Monterey
[Outro]
Oh Monterey
How can I say
I'll always stay
And slip away
Oh Monterey
I can hear the road call
I can hear the road call out my name
A journey made
Mercy paid
An old refrain
To light the way
[Chorus]
I can see the North Star
I can see the North Star overhead
I can see the North Star
I can see the North Star from this bed
Beneath the sky
The night betrayed
Rescued by
The Milky Way
[Verse 2]
Summon out the rain clouds
Someone should hear how loud we sing
Blinded by the notion
Of fog in an ocean, all around
Oh Monterey
How can I say
I'll always stay
And slip away
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
I can show the world, ma'
I can wake the world out from her sleep
I can show the world, ma'
I don't fear the world from my two feet
A prayer to keep
To hide away
Our love will read
The ash and clay
Of Monterey
[Outro]
Oh Monterey
How can I say
I'll always stay
And slip away
Oh Monterey
