MOVE ON

On a strange and darkened night
Sittin' straight behind the headlights
Lookin' out but seeing nothing
You know you should be watchin' something
Know you ought to see
But all that meets the naked eye
Are things that you don't need

Don't look once in the rearview mirror
Those streets are cold you don't need 'em clearer
Still remember the light in the backyard
A dirty moon on a playing card
Grass as hard as stone
Every breath of air is stingin' cold inside your bones

  So long
  Why'd you have to go
  And leave me alone
  To Move On

Cars racin' on a lonely highway
Whistelin' by you like birds in the skyway
Blacktop's chilly and it's freezin' you sideways
Deep blue sky shimmerin' pale
Shimmer cold and hard
Ain't it strange how dawn arranges light after the dark

  So long
  Why'd you have to go
  And leave me alone
  To Move On
