Rusty barbed wire lines these fields, gravel dust behind the wheels, drifting like my mind
into the rear view Jet trails couldn't cross the sky, I'm rolling
through the open wide, searching for a song to drink a beer to, and trying to find a place
to disappear to Light up the night and let it burn, lean back
and watch the sundown fade, do what I do and last a little sideways
I'll take a sip and say a prayer, wait for a shooting star and stare off at the headlights
On the highway, that guy in the windshield looking back looks just like me, but there's a crack
in the reflection, this is just a moonlight soak, ring of smoke, right hand on code, one confession
Embers in the ashtray glow like memories that won't let go, I'm out here trying to get them untangled
In the darkness on the edge of town, a little lost, a little found, waiting on a call from an angel
I light up the night and let it burn, lean back and watch the sundown fade, do what I do and last a little sideways
I'll take a sip and say a prayer, wait for a shooting star and stare off at the headlights
On the highway, that guy in the windshield looking back looks just like me, but there's a crack
in the reflection, this is just a moonlight soak, ring of smoke, right hand on code, one confession
I light up the night and let it burn, lean back and watch the sundown fade, do what I do and last a little sideways
I'll take a sip and say a prayer, wait for a shooting star and stare off at the headlights
On the highway, that guy in the windshield looking back looks just like me, but there's a crack
in the reflection, hope is moving in the right direction, this is just a moonlight soak, ring of smoke, right hand on code, one confession
I light up the night and let it burn, lean back and watch the sundown fade, do what I do and last a little sideways
