Headlights 03:43
Driving late at night, old songs on the radio Every single word, they're singing about you Not a soul for miles around, just the headlights passing by I don't mind, being lonely sometimes Every now and then it feels alright Now I'm running headlong to your door Like I've done a thousand times before Now I'm running headlong to your door I don't wanna be lonely anymore Pull up at our bar, nothing seems to change In the flicker of the neon lights, I'll drink away the pain Take a seat at the end of the bar, I'll keep a place for you I don't mind, being lonely sometimes Every now and then it feels alright Now I'm running headlong to your door Like I've done a thousand times before Now I'm running headlong to your door I don't wanna be lonely anymore Baby I'm just a fool, shouting shadows at the moon Everything I've been through, I'm just trying to reach you Now I'm running headlong to your door Like I've done a thousand times before Now I'm running headlong to your door I don't wanna be lonely anymore I don't wanna be lonely anymore

Took a bus to New York, in '67 Left a child behind me, with a loving family Got to Brooklyn, in my winter coat Went looking for friends, and a new life I suppose The first time I saw you, you were sleeping You looked so beautiful, like an angel from heaven Just kids Hungry half the time, pulling dirty pictures out of magazines Just kids Reading Rimbaud, you'd say "Patti, play me something I can dance to" Well Robert, that's just what I'm gonna do My beautiful boy We were lovers for a while, friends forever Everything we had, we shared with each other Lived at the Chelsea, in that magic time There's nothing left now, but legends, songs and lies You took photographs, I used words We did our best, to be heard Just kids Hungry half the time, pulling dirty pictures out of magazines Just kids Reading Rimbaud, you'd say "Patti, play me something I can dance to" Well Robert, that's just what I'm gonna do My beautiful boy My beautiful boy The night you died, I was sleeping When I woke, I knew that you were gone Your brother phoned me To say, he kissed you goodbye one last time, from me The morning was cold, the TV was on A woman from long ago, singing a song Just kids All grown up now, grey haired and thinking about the old days Just kids Reading Rimbaud, you'd say "Patti, play me something I can dance to" Well Robert, that's just what I'm gonna do My beautiful boy My beautiful boy
