Red Light

Enjoy the moments under the moon,
With no rush to get home
Cause you know she's leaving as soon,
As shes slams the passenger door,
Packs all her things off the floor, while
You're weeping for her forgiveness
You take back every word that was mean,
But the lack of passion from her is so relentless

So you try...to be the better man,
Try to hold on to every second that you can
So you're time left with her will last
Starting new fights just to delay her flight
Why are the streetlights passing by so fast
Faith is tested, the stars align in the sky's night,
As you pray to hit every Stoplight
You pray to hit every Red Light.

You're heart is bruised and left battered
At this point it doesn't even matter
She starts to Flee, you reach out for her arm
You see the look in her eyes, you see the extra harm,
No choice left but to let her go, and as you let her go,
The rain drops, the teardrops, begin, to flow...

So now you're all alone, as you write her a poem
In the form of letter, but it's not gettin any better
Remembering when, you used to read them and loved 'em...
Guess you're to high up now on your totem,
To display nothing but your lack of emotion,
As you stand in the puddle beneath you, as it resembles the ocean

But I tried....to be the bigger man,
Tried to hold on to every second that I can
So you're time left with me would last
Starting new fights just to delay your flight
Why are the streetlights passing by so fast
Faith is tested, the stars align in the sky's night,
As I prayed to hit every Stoplight
I prayed to hit every Red Light.

They say sometimes good-bye is a second chance,
But I'm afraid that this Red Light, was our last dance....
