Seattle Songtext
von Jon Bryant

It′s about time that I head back to Seattle
The highways at midnight still point me out that way
I hope that you'll follow me back home to Seattle
It′s a long road ahead and I don't want to miss you at all

And it's been a while since I′ve driven through Snoqualmie
And I can′t remember the last time that I cried
I hope when I see ya, I get the idea that it's just a matter of time
It′s been a few years and I can't wait to see you this time

′Cause I'm northwest bound ′til a needle appears
Where the rain falls 265 days a year
I'm fully aware love don't always play fair, the rest is up to you
So give me your heart and we′ll drive ′til the skies turn to blue
And never look back


The rain sometimes seems to fall slower in Seattle
But maybe that's typical after a couple of months
When it starts to pour, I′ll come back up to the shore
And take you straight out from the clouds
You're my destination no matter the city I go

′Cause I'm northwest bound ′til a needle appears
Where the rain falls 265 days a year
And I'm fully aware love don't always play fair, the rest is up to you
So give me your heart and we′ll drive ′til the skies turn to blue
We'll never look back

The charms of the west, they help me forget I′m not there
There's only one thing that the good Lord has yet to begin
And I hope it′s you, I hope it's you

′Cause I'm northwest bound 'til a needle appears
Where the rain falls 265 days a year
And I′m fully aware love don′t always play fair, the rest is up to you
So give me your heart and we'll drive ′til the skies turn to blue
