In An Instant Lyrics - Singles - Stephen Hunley

Sits alone in her driveway 

Counts the lights downtown in the city 

Blue, white, purple, green and red 

No colors out there it's just all in her head 

And she's feeling lonely again 

Can't seem to find a friend 

She ain't broke but she's bent 

This trip has finally come to an end 

Black and white she fades to gray 

Nobody here to give a damn anyway 

The city lights fade in the distance 

Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant 

Sits alone on the hood of her car 

Going somewhere but it won't be far 

Chasing down dreams that just aren't there 

She's alone and nobody cares 

'Cause she's a stranger in this town 

Nobody she knows around 

All she can hear is the sound 

Of the cars going up and down the road that she lives on 

Black and white she fades to gray 

Nobody here to give a damn anyway 

The city lights fade in the distance 

Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant 

Thirty-five and she's still all alone 

Talks to her sister in Memphis on the phone 

Speak of Elvis Rock 'n' Roll and the Blues 

Why couldn't she walk in those blue suede shoes 

Black and white she fades to gray 

Nobody here to give a damn anyway 

The city lights fade in the distance 

Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant 

Black and white she fades to gray 

Nobody here to give a damn anyway 

The city lights fade in the distance 

Hopes and dreams shot down in an instant - down in an instant
