Groupe Indie-Folk de Montréal, Will Driving West présente sur Carte Blanche une compilation des titres les plus efficaces de leur discographie. De ballades introspectives et poignantes en hymnes confiants chantés en choeur, Canadian Parkways est un album à la fois intime et fonctionnel, où les codes de la folk alternative s’adaptent aussi bien aux grands espaces chers au cinéma indépendant américain qu’aux codes chaleureux de la publicité moderne.

You've been talking in your sleep
Your dreams appear to be not so light these nights Couldn't help, I heard you weep
I bought some tickets, our plane leaves tomorrow
Let's go find some place where we've never been Shouldn't be that hard to find
All those spaces we've never traveled in
Let us go before we lose our minds
We've been talking about it forever
Now what about making it happen
Sometimes we have to say "It's now or never" I'm tired of words, what we need is some action
Let's go hitch hike some roads we've never known Shouldn't be that hard to find
I promise you we'll never be alone
Let us go before we lose our minds

Mrs. Sunshine, you're strong enough to smile Do you need me, do you need me anymore? I could settle and watch you from my tower Would it make me, would it make me nice?
Mrs. Feather, you're brave enough to fly
Do you love me, do you love me anymore?
I could give up, I'm sure you'd understand
But would you want me, would you want me in your land?
Mrs. Flower, you sleep within my cave
Do you see me, do you see me anymore? Hear this song and tell me if it's good
Is it good enough, is it good enough for you?
Mrs. Sunshine, don't miss the point I love you
Mrs. Sunshine, you chase the dark away And I need you
I need you
Mrs. Feather, you raise my lead soul to the sky And I love you
I love you

You won’t have to miss me, I’ll be home as soon as the snow covers the ground December is easy, it’s the months before that always bring me down A ghost without a mission, another year gone by I’ve been trying to listen to the tears we’ve cried All I need you to believe is that I’ll be back when I am whole again I’ll find a card up my sleeve, a king or a jack to help me be a man A guest without permission, another gear gone dry I’m still trying to listen to the tears we’ve cried Unless you want to come away with me I guess we couldn’t go astray, Andie Andie Unless you want to come away with me I guess we couldn’t go astray, Andie Andie

I’m a bird stuck in a stormy night
Trying to make it to a tree
And I found you on my way
Let’s fly real high ‘till the morning comes
You don’t need to be scared at all No flood can drown a flying bird
Say you will Say you will Say you will Follow me
And we’ll learn to read the winds better Always best to have them on your side And we’ll rest when we want to
On a floating branch somewhere
You don’t need to be scared at all Life is good to those who
Dare to try
High, high High, high

I know you don't need empty promises so I Won't make them for you
For you
All I have is songs and faith In our lucky moon
You're my good fortune
But I want you to feel safe inside my arms
I'll be your home, the one that follows you around
Sorry buddy, it just got too emotional for me
Making music so great it could move the heart of a caveman And cast it to the sea
We played three nights in a summer and God, I’ll remember The smiles on those faces forever
But then our blue skies turned to grey Couldn’t watch you throw it all away
And now I love the girl you used to love It wasn’t planned, it just happened Miss you, my friend
I miss your songs, I miss the band
Treasure me just like a child Let me see the light in you Give your love a little while Let me be the light in you
Drop your weapons on the ground Let your anger slip away
Don't be a fool when I'm around Welcome my boat in your bay
Spread your wings Spread them wide Say something
Let it slide
Treasure me just like a child Let me see the light in you Give your love a little while Let me be the light in you
Spread your wings Spread them wide Say something
Let it slide
I don’t need no one to tell me You’ve been on my mind lately I know
I’ve been thinking lots about you Wondering if I’ll ever get through My love
Some friends of mine they thought we should have Never got together from the start
But what do you think?
Is life lighter without me now,
How do you feel kissing someone else’s neck?
Still dreaming about you now and then Hoping to get fixed in the end
Always smiling with all my friends but They don’t know my castle’s made of sand
For you don’t answer when I call I stay awake until I fall
I miss you
Where have you been?
Tell me did you leave America, Making sure you don’t look back? Chasing clouds in South Australia, Trying to get back on track?

Baby I think something’s wrong
We’re living in the shadow of our future Well I’m just too fond of you
And the tidal waves they keep on Erasing our letters in the sand And the sailors won’t even know
Bring back the winter so we can write them in the snow Come on my lover, stay here, oh please don’t go
‘Cause I’m never free without you No I’m never free without you
Maybe we just don’t belong
You’re asking me to be somebody else Well I’m not as strong as you
And the tidal waves they keep on Collapsing our castles to the ground And the swimmers won’t even know
Bring back the winter so we can build them in the snow Come on my lover, stay here, oh please don’t go
‘Cause I’m always lost without you Yeah I’m always lost without you Without you

You're acting all brave like you don't feel a thing Your heart is in glass, you can't hide a storm from me Your tears running down your throat, swallow
A bowling ball, a mouthful of six inch nails
This pain inside your head is killing me
I won't be the one to say that time heals everything Well I know it's true, but you wouldn't want me to Though I've been there a thousand times before Still I never know the words to say
Now who made that hole in your chest Now you deserve some rest
Open the valves and let it flow
You wouldn't want to keep that cancer into you Just don't let your soul get stuck in muddy waters When the fog is gone, you'll find a road ahead
And I'll be there cheering for you Like you've been there before for me For me

Sail away from the cries of your cynical thoughts
Sail away from the hurry to prove them wrong
Sail away from the voices who can't help but bring you down Let them think they know something
Then sail away
Sail away from the land where your dreams seem unreal
Sail away to where you don't have to do, where you only have to be Sail away from the striving
Sail away from the struggle
Sail away to the heavens, they're right here in your hands
Sail away to better lands
