Old Roads from happy abduction by Victoriana Gaye

I only drive the old roads in this town
I think I'm seeing ghosts, but it doesn't matter
I'm searching for the signs of a previous life
I took a turn with a friend of mine

I only drive the old roads of this town
I made a deal with a German dancer
Caught behind a rattling tin-can tram
We're moving slow but I don't mind

You'll find me on the road Mt. Alexander
Then I'm heading south along the Chandler
Crossing over on Centre Road, from East Bentleigh
I'm caught in a loop, now can you see me
I'm looking through windows for trinity
Old Coburg's not the place it used to be, people live in the jail

I see my father crossing over, that block of flats is so much taller
My temperature gauge is getting hotter, in a memory of love
Up a one way street and down another
There's an old milk bar on the corner
It's selling yesterdays papers, in a memory of love

I only drive the old roads in this town
I think I'm seeing ghosts, but it doesn't matter
I'm searching for the signs of a previous life
I took a turn with a friend of mine

I only drive the old roads of this town
I made a deal with a german dancer
Caught behind a rattling tin-can tram
We're moving slow but I don't mind

I only drive the old Roads of this town
