Unknown Legend - Tunde Adebimpe

From Hank to Hendrix I walked these streets with you Here I am with this old guitar Doing what I do I always expected That you would see me through I never believed in much But I believed in you Can we get it together Can we still stand side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride From Marilyn to Madonna I always loved your smile Now we're headed for the big divorce California-style I found myself singing Like a long-lost friend The same thing that makes you live Can kill you in the end Can we get it together Can we still stand side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride Sometimes it's distorted Not clear to you Sometimes the beauty of love Just comes ringing through New glass in the window New leaf on the tree New distance between us You and me Can we get it together Can we still walk side by side Can we make it last Like a musical ride

She used to work in a diner Never saw a woman look finer I used to order just to watch Her float across the floor She grew up in a small town Never put her roots down Daddy always kept movin', So she did too. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair Flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with The very air she breathes The air she breathes. You know it ain't easy You got to hold on She was an unknown legend In her time Now she's dressin' two kids Lookin' for a magic kiss She gets the far-away look In her eyes. Somewhere on a desert highway She rides a Harley-Davidson Her long blonde hair Flyin' in the wind She's been runnin' half her life The chrome and steel she rides Collidin' with the very Air she breathes The air she breathes.
