lyrics

DRIVING AFTER MIDNIGHT

I'm always driving
After midnight
Nothing in the world
Just the road and the headlights
Nothing in the world
Just the road and the headlights tonight

Chet Baker singing
And playing that trumpet low
Flashing by trees
That took a hundred years to grow
Nothing in the world
Just the road and the headlights tonight

As far back as I can
Remember I've imagined
A car seen from far above
A small black satellite
Hurtling 'cross the face
Of the earth at night
Free as a meteor

Only two people
On an empty highway
Come tomorrow
All this will just be yesterday
Nothing in the world
Just the road and the headlights tonight

As far back as I can
Remember I've imagined
A car seen from far above
A small black satellite
Hurtling across the face
Of the earth at night
Doomed as a meteor

Let all these dark towns
Keep on sleeping
Let the edges of the hills
Always be about to brighten
Nothing in the world
Just the road and the headlights tonight
