Light Out In The Road

You’re watching to see his headlights coming up the road

Telling stories with your fingers crossed you’re running up into

You say you never lie

I know your raising pain

I shouldn’t have given you my own name

For all I’ve done

I could never break you

Left over’s on a pile of dishes

Wash’em up and go

You stay off of those dirty back roads

I knew years ago

Run off to your room

Make sure it fits just right

When it comes around I know

Something’s coming down

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

I know he’s out there shining for you

Slide all the way across the front seat

Slide right into his

You’re waiting to feel his skin beneath your finger tips

Well I have seen your hands

Run up and down his back

I don’t begrudge you in the very thing I’m remembering

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

I know he’s out there shining for you

Shouldn’t have given you my own name

For all I’ve done

I could never break you

I walked up and over this place

Many years ago

If their eyes should fall on this face I’d say I told you so

Well I recall the days and all it used to take was a whisper as I walked by

Can’t this town in chains

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road

I know he’s out there shining

There’s a light out in the road

There’s a light out in the road
