Rich Evans - Secret Message Lyrics

Back seat of my father's car
Watching the world go by
13-years-old on my way to school
Staring up at the sky
But a record come on the radio
Filled with the promise of the open road
The DJ said, 'Here's one for you all
The Jayhawks, Hollywood Town Hall'

When I heard that song for the first time
I found it written between the lines
Was a secret message - meant for me alone
Caught between the grooves, calling me home

When the school bell rang at the end of the day
I headed straight into town
Running down the street to the record store
Searching for that sound
Digging for gold from across the sea
Looking for titles that spoke to me
Highway and freedom they sounded alright
'Life in the Fast Lane,' 'Hollywood Nights'

I listened to those songs so many times
I found it written between the lines
Was a secret message - meant for me alone
Caught between the grooves, calling me home
Yeah a secret message - meant for me alone
Caught between the grooves, calling me home

Was I separated at birth
From the other side of the earth?
Chasing a dream in my soul
Looking for the heart of Rock and Roll
Searching for the missing part
To make me whole

Now I'm in the front seat of my own car
Watching the world go by
Got my 9-year-old son in the back
Staring up at the sky
When an old song comes on the radio
Brings back memories of long ago
The band's on fire - they sound so good
Singing, 'Say Goodbye to Hollywood'

Was a secret message - meant for me alone
Caught between the grooves, calling me home
Was a secret message - meant for me alone
Caught between the grooves, calling me home
Caught between the grooves, calling me home
