David Nail "Red Light"
So this is how it ends
this is where it all goes down
this is what "I don't love you" feels like
It ain't the middle of the night
and it ain't even rainin outside
it ain't exactly what I had in mind... for goodbye
At a red light
in the sunshine, on a sunday
nothing to say, don't even try
some are comin home, some are leavin town
while my world's crashin down...
on a Sunday, in the sunshine
at a red light
I thought she was gonna say
somethin about that couple kissin, crossin the street
or somethin about this beautiful day
but she just looked me in the eye
said it's over
didn't try to lie, or pick a fight
I might have seen it comin that way
But at a red light, in the sunshine
on a sunday, nothin to say, don't even try
some are comin home, some are leavin town
while my world's crashin down
on a Sunday, in the sunshine
at a red light
there's a momma calmin down a little baby in the backseat in front of me
there's an old man dressed in his Sunday best, just waitin on green
but I can't see... gettin past...
this red light, in the sunshine, on a Sunday, nothing to say, don't even try
some are comin home, some are leavin town
while my world's crashin down
on a Sunday, in the sunshine...
