Headlights

You were laughing on the passenger seat floor
And I was telling a story about the night before
How did the night end up torn through a war
And when I didn’t want to see you, anymore
It all happened so fast, when I had made up my mind
Why couldn’t I remember how you’ve been so kind
You see, I never wanted to leave you behind
But you told me it wasn’t your time…
Yet.
To me, you were the light of my world
So sweet
But these wars in my head have been on repeat
Driving through cut corners and short streets
After a moment of silence I felt no heartbeat
It all happened so fast, when something didn’t seem right
Why couldn’t I see in time the blinding headlights
I never wanted this, but all I could see was clear white
You told me the time didn’t feel right…
Yet.
I didn’t want to leave you behind
But I think I was running out of time
I didn’t want to leave you behind
But I think I was running out of time
