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
