One Last Time

(album: Palomar Parade - 2022)

I stare ahead and I wonder
Where the time has gone
Rolling out on the highway
I've been going from dusk till dawn

Now my whole world catches on fire
Red light on the ground
Hanging out on the wire
When nobody ever stays around

Now the sun is coming up in my hotel room
And I didn't get to sleep last night
I just wanted to call you up
And tell you what's been on my mind

Hear the way through the rain
Coming down like tears
I remember the buffalo clouds
When the sky had never been so near

Now I'm driving blind as the headlight shine
Turning night into day
Call her up to the cold wind
Don't know when I let you lead me astray

Now the sun is coming up in my hotel room
And I didn't get to sleep last night
I just wanted to call you up
And tell you what's been on my mind
Well, it's easy come and it's easy go
And you don't know what you leave behind
I just wanted to hear your voice
If only for one last time
