Headlights On the Highway

And the headlights on the highway

Could not help me understand

Whatever it is you need, I pray I am

You wear nothing but a smile, a nervous laughter

Spending evenings in your dark blue cotton sheets

And I've spent years, it seems, just wandering through the darkness

And the answer came on that late summer breeze

And the headlights on the highway

Could not help me understand

Whatever it is you need, I pray I am

With my fingertips I trace on your bare skin

All of the things I'd like to say but cannot speak

You mean everything, there are not quite words enough

To tell you all the things that you've become for me

And the headlights on the highway

Could not help me understand

Whatever it is you need, I pray I am

And I don't need no secrets, I give up on lies

If it's gonna rain I'd rather know than be caught blind

And the headlights on the highway

Could not help me understand

Whatever it is you need, I pray I am

And the headlights on the highway

Could not help me understand

Whatever it is you need, I pray I am
