AT NIGHT ON A TWO-LANE BLACKTOP
PAIR OF HEADLIGHTS BLAZING IN MY EYES
I DON'T KNOW WHERE
BLINDED BY THE GLARE
WHEN THEY CROSS THE LINE
NO TIME TO SAY GOODBYES
Last night I dreamed again
'bout how it all will end
The time and the place were not revealed
But I had a dream
Where there was no time to scream
Gonna die with my hands around the wheel
I can't hide from the headlights in the night
I can't run away from that dream
Everywhere I go
There's a two-lane country road
And a wreck on the highway waits for me
CHORUS
Blue highway, country road
I need a cup of joe
Something makes me keep rolling on
Shadows dark and deep
Don't let me fall asleep
There's miles I gotta go before the dawn
I can't hide from the headlights in the night
I can't run away from that dream
Everywhere I go
There's a two-lane country road
And a wreck on the highway waits for me
CHORUS
I don't know where, it just don't seem fair
But a wreck on the highway waits for me
