One Headlight — текст песни (The Wallflowers)

So long ago, I don`t remember when
That`s when they say I lost my only friend
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees

I seen the sun comin` up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste, she always had a pretty face
So I wondered how she hung around this place

Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There`s got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

She said it`s cold
It feels like Independence Day
And I can`t break away from this parade
But there`s got to be an opening
Somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead at the county line bridge
Sayin` all there`s good and nothingness is dead
We`ll run until she`s out of breath
She ran until there`s nothin` left
She hit the end, it`s just her window ledge

Hey, come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There`s got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight

Well this place is old
It feels just like a beat up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn`t turn
Well it smells of cheap wine, cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I`d like to watch it burn
I`m so alone and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain`t changed, but I know I ain`t the same
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin` dreams
I think of death, it must be killin` me

Hey, hey hey come on try a little
Nothing is forever
There`s got to be something better than
In the middle
But me & Cinderella
We put it all together
We can drive it home
With one headlight
