Nothing But The Taillights lyrics

Blue Kentucky highway
Headin for the line
She hadn t said a word all night
But the wheels are turnin in her mind
Now I was ridin shotgun
And I knew things had gone awry
Just as soon as she dropped me off
At the side of the road
And she let that gravel fly

Now I m walkin in the moonlight
Seein nothin but the taillights
And that s a pair of taillights
I may never see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showin me nothin but the taillights
And that s about as lonely
As the highway s ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind

Was it somethin that I did to her
Or the things I never said?
I wonder if the way we were
Was only in my head
Now if I even make it back to town
Before the sun comes up
I m gonna hit every parking spot around
Till I find that pick-up truck

Now I m talkin in the moonlight
Seein nothin but the taillights
And that s a pair of taillights
I may never see again
She hit me with the left and right
Showin me nothin but the taillights
And that s about as lonely
As a highway s ever been
Stuck here with my thumb out in the wind

Well I ll bet right now
She s laughin at how
She brought me to my knees
But she won t be laughin half as loud
When she gives me back my keys

She ll be walkin in the moonlight,
Seein nothin but the taillights
And that s a pair of taillights
She won t ever see again
She hit me with a left and right
And with nothin but the taillights
And I know that s about as lonely
As a highway s ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind

There she goes
Here I come
