Headlights and Goodbyes
She sets off alone, with her son, over quarrelling,
Opinions she's had enough, no longer following,
Deep in the heart, of a country, on their own.
Wind streaming by, a journey on the road,
Leaving behind, all the lies, and a smoking gun
Review lights, suburban catastrophe
Headlights over the tops of the trees,
Driving through the night,
Knowing she can't turn back the time
Face stuck at the window, moving landscapes, he starts to cry,
Memories so raw, they're all passing by,
She holds his hand, emotions now traveling
Too young to explain,
That these hearts they can break
But these hearts they are made to love again
Headlights over the tops of the trees,
Driving through the night,
Knowing she can't turn back the time
The season has changed, the storms they are breaking,
Colours return, this life's worth saving
Knowing she can't turn back the time
But still there is a pain in this goodbye
She looks to the open sky, her fears they fade to relief,
In this new day that's forming, she'll come back, piece by piece
In this half-light, with reflections of all the good times,
She hopes he will see, she just want them to be free
Headlights over the tops of the trees,
Driving through the night,
Knowing she can't turn back the time
The season has changed, these storms they are breaking,
Colours return, this life's worth saving
Knowing she can't turn back the time
But still there is a pain in this goodbye
But still there is a pain in this goodbye
