Looking at your tail lights
Bouncing off the raindrops
Hoping that they might be
Strong enough to make you stop
I gotta go somewhere
Far away from this empty house
Between the rain and the whiskey
I can't seem to find a way out
I'm using all the faith I have
Praying you might take me back
Take me back there to that beat up Ford
Chasing that horizon down the road
No time to think this trip would end
You and I would break or even bend
Ice cold beer and fresh cigarettes
Our perfect tailgate view of those sunsets
When that morning sun broke through
And I was holding on to you
Waiting for your headlights
To pull back in the driveway
Hoping that I'm man enough
To finally say I'm sorry
I had no luck sleeping
Without you beside me
The perfume on your pillow
Only helps to remind me
I'm doing all that I can do
To get some sleep but I see you
It takes me back there to that beat up Ford
Chasing that horizon down the road
No time to think this trip would end
You and I would break or even bend
Ice cold beer and fresh cigarettes
Our perfect tailgate view of those sunsets
When that morning sun broke through
And I was holding on to you
You never learn when you forget the past
So if you ever take me back
I'll take you back there to that beat up Ford
Chasing that horizon down the road
No time to think this trip would end
You and I would break or even bend
Ice cold beer and fresh cigarettes
Our perfect tailgate view of those sunsets
When that morning sun broke through
And I was holding on to you
