Hey, my friend
It wasn't meant to be an end
Just a retreat to darker skies
Sure, there was a light
But it burned so close and so bright
That I could not help but close my eyes
Something you said
Moved slowly through my head last night
As I dreamed in blue
It woke me while the sky
Still blinked a sleepy eyes
And now I'm southbound on highway 42
Driving to you
I have no patience
My finger taps the wheel
To the nervous pulse of this song
The morning hypnotizes me
As the red sun rises, I see
That each bit of light surprises the dawn
Something you said
Moved slowly through my head last night
As I dreamed in blue
It woke me while the sky
Still blinked a sleepy eyes
And now I'm southbound on highway 42
Driving to you
Each bit of light that fills up the sky
Illuminates the how and the why
I can't believe that we could end up here
Each bit of light that fills up the sky
Illuminates the how and the why
Hey, my friend
It wasn't meant to be an end
Just a retreat to darker skies
Sure, there was a light
But we never learned to use it right
And I could not help but close my eyes
