|
Just three miles from the rest stop |
|
She slams on the breaks |
|
She said, "I tried to be but I'm not |
|
And could you please collect your things" |
|
Well, I don't wanna be cold |
|
I don't wanna be cruel |
|
But I gotta find more than |
|
What's happening with you |
|
An' if you'd open up the door |
|
She said, "While you were sleeping |
|
I was listening to the radio |
|
And wondering what you're dreaming when |
|
It came to mind that I didn't care" |
|
And I thought hell if it's over |
|
Well, I had better end it quick |
|
Or I could lose my nerve |
|
Are you listening? Can you hear me? |
|
Have you forgotten? |
|
Just three miles from the rest stop |
|
And my mouth's too dry to rage |
|
The light was shining from the radio |
|
An' I could barely see her face |
|
But she knew all the words that I never had said |
|
She knew the crumpled up promise of this |
|
Broken down man and as I opened up the door |
|
She said, "While you were sleeping |
|
I was listening to the radio |
|
And wondering what you're dreaming when |
|
It came to mind that I didn't care" |
|
And I thought hell if it's over |
|
And I had better end it quick |
|
Or I could lose my nerve |
|
Are you listening? Can you hear me? |
|
Can you hear me? |
|
Can you hear me? |
|
While you were sleeping |
|
Well, I was listening to the radio |
|
And wondering what you're dreaming when |
|
It came to mind that I didn't care |
|
So I thought hell if it's over |
|
Well, I had better end it quick |
|
Or I could lose all my nerve |
|
Are you listening? Can you hear me? |
|
While you were sleeping |
|
I was listening to the radio |
|
And wondering what you're dreaming when |
|
It came to mind that I didn't care |
|
I thought hell if it's over |
|
Well, I had better end it quick |
|
Or I could lose all my nerve |
|
Are you listening? Can you hear me? |
