Times Like These

Foo Fighters · The Best Of BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge [2011]

I am a one way motorway

I'm a road that drives away

and follows you back home

I am a streetlight shining

I'm a white light blinding bright

Burning off and on



It's times like these you learn to live again

It's times like these you give and give again

It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these time and time again



I am a new day rising

I'm a brand new sky

To hang the stars upon tonight

but I

I am a little divided

Do I stay or run away

And leave it all behind?



It's times like these you learn to live again

It's times like these you give and give again

It's times like these you learn to love again

It's times like these time and time again
