NOTHIN' BUT THE TAILLIGHTS

Blue Kentucky highway, headin' for the line
She hadn't said a word all night, but the wheels are turning in her mind
Now I was ridin' shotgun, and I knew things were going right
Just as soon as she dropped me off at the side of the road
And she let that gravel fly

Chorus:
Now I'm walking in the moonlight
Seein' nothin' but the taillights
That's a pair of taillights
I may never see again
She hit me with a left and right
Showin' me nothin' but the taillights
That's about as lonely as a highway has ever been
Back here with my thumb out in the wind

Verse 2:
Was it something 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 alive before the sun comes up
I'm gonna hit every parking spot around
'Till I find that pickup truck

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Well I'll bet right now she's laughin' it out
She even brought me to my knees
But she won't be laughin' half as loud when she gives me back my keys

Repeat Chorus
