Headlights against the horizon (versione 2)

Verse

Faded coffee in the cupholder now

Sweat on my neck where the wind used to blow

Neon signs are starting to fade

Your hand was still holding mine when this turned to grey

The hum of the engine is all I know

Sun's about 10 degrees up from the floor

Pulling over at the same old spot

Watching morning break through a crack in the clouds

Same gravel road that we used to ride

Different skin but the same wind in my face

Saw the same sunrise on your mother's shoulder when I was five years younger

Chorus

Headlights against the horizon, holding steady on the rise

One less star shining where your hand used to be

Headlights against the horizon, running till the sky turns blue

And we're not falling because that's just what I knew

Verse

Sundog over the water tower now

The gravel parking lot is empty as it gets

No more ghosts in the backseat today

Just dust on the seat and a memory we made

You said you'd call when you hit the city line

I'm still waiting for that one phone call

But maybe some scars need to stay open so they can heal

Chorus

Headlights against the horizon, holding steady on the rise

One less star shining where your hand used to be

Headlights against the horizon, running till the sky turns blue

And we're not falling because that's just what I knew

Bridge

I don't need you here to watch it set

Sunrise knows how to break a man anyway

I've learned to walk without a map or a name

The only thing I'm chasing is a sunrise

So keep on walking, girl, and hold your head high

We both know the same road leads us somewhere new

Chorus

Headlights against the horizon, holding steady on the rise

One less star shining where your hand used to be

Headlights against the horizon, running till the sky turns blue

And we're not falling because that's just what I knew

Outro

Sunrise breaking on an empty road

No more static in my radio
