Well it seems as though this light will never turn green
I've been driving for a while, can't tell where I've been
I got nothing on my mind, I got nothing to do
I'm just driving around listening to Nebraska
Well, my girl, she told me last night I'm not the one
Half my heart was ripped out but I still got some
And if this light should stay red
I'll be sitting here listening to Nebraska
I was trying so hard to get to you
Now I'm driving so far to forget you
Well, tonight I should be lying with you in a never-ending night
Well, tonight I should be lying in a never-ending kiss
But I'm alone on this dark road listening to Nebraska
