lyrics

Well the tires just crossed the rumble strip for the fifteenth time
It’s just as well they’re there ‘cos you’ve been asleep for miles
Almost killed us yesterday while we were reading in the back
Just keep your eyes on the horizon and watch out for speed traps

I don’t want to be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?
I don’t want to be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?

Tuesday in the airport we were going through hell
You stopped me in my tracks in turmoil by the baggage carousel
Driving home I talked, you listened you owed me that much ‘cos it’s been so long
Didn’t want to stop ‘cos I knew when I pulled over you’d be gone

I don’t want to be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?
I don’t want to be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?

And you’ve always been a little more than that
Some call this recklessness but I’d be there in two seconds flat
And you’ve always seen a little more than me
So while I’m blindsided please watch over me

Sometimes heading home just seems like the safest thing to do
There’s something in the air & the people there
Can spur you on when you feel through
The purple tinged horizon stirs the heart and relieves the fear
And this broken ride on the blinded side has kept my thoughts & feelings clear

I don’t want to be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?
Please don’t let me be blindsided again
Do you think that’s any way yeah to treat a friend?

about

The Wynntown Marshals Edinburgh, UK

Formed in Edinburgh in 2007, The Marshals tip their hat to The Jayhawks, Wilco, Drive-By Truckers, Tom Petty, Ryan Adams & Neil Young.

Their sound can loosely be described as ‘country rock' with powerpop hooks, but they love layered guitars, catchy choruses and have an unabashed belief in the power of rock music as a storytelling medium.
