Headlights

Chords

 

Calm
The key is to be calm
I'm sure that my hands will settle soon
Just keep them locked at ten and two and carry on

I need to carry on...
'cause taking that final look behind me
Changes nothing but my mind
If I stop now
And turn the other way
I'm only going back for yester-
Only going back for yesterday

And it's okay
We're better off apart but that's the part of me
That voices things I never meant to say
We're like two cars in the night
Your headlights blind me briefly
Then you're gone and we continue on our way

Well
I'm not feeling too well
I tried every trick to understand
If I seem lost it's 'cause I am and I need

Help
I need a little help
I've crossed your path so many times
But right now yours just isn't mine
The road is clear, a sign as if to say:
It's time you let the past be yester-
Time you let the past be yesterday

And it's okay
We're better off apart but that's the part of me
That voices things I never meant to say
We're like two cars in the night
Your headlights blind me briefly
Then you're gone and we continue on our way

And when I think it's far enough away
You make me feel like it was yester-
Make me feel like it was yesterday

And it's okay
We're better off apart but that's the part of me
That voices things I never meant to say
We're like two cars in the night
Your headlights blind me briefly
Then you're gone and we continue on our way

And my exit's on the right
The mile markers counting down
The empty minutes of the night
And I drive on...
Letting limits pass me by
As I search my rearview mirror
Not for the dawn
But for the incoming headlights
