"Red Lights" lyrics

"Red Lights"

Sitting here idling
Been a good while since
You were sitting next to me
Had a loaded Silverado
Lifted up console
Your hand on my knee
Yeah, I still got this damned old truck
But sitting here that ain't good enough

'Cause these red lights are killing me
My mind's a silver screen
Rollin' down memory lane
A square mile wide
Can't ever drive by
Everywhere says your name
He sees the pain in it
Everything we could have been
And every minute waiting on green
Got these good years stuck here in misery
These red lights are killing me

Wish it was over at goodbye
Come back 'cause I
Gotta check on mama and mail
I tried to avoid it
Behind every door is
One of your long lost friends
And they always wanna talk about you
But damn this was my hometown too

And these red lights are killing me
My mind's a silver screen
Rollin' down memory lane
A square mile wide
Can't ever drive by
Everywhere says your name
He sees the pain in it
Everything we could have been
And every minute waiting on green
Got these good years stuck here in misery
These red lights are killing me

Sure, these red lights are killing me
My mind's a silver screen
Rollin' down memory lane
A square mile wide
Can't ever drive by
Everywhere says your name
He sees the pain in it
Everything we could have been
And every minute waiting on green
Got these good years stuck here in misery
These red lights are killing me
These red lights are killing me yeah
