I've been staring at the ceiling for a while
Wishing we could start over sometime
Like a hot-air balloon can only soar
If you toss all the weight overboard
But gravity is pulling on me tight
What if we could leave this place behind?
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
Oh - Into the dead of night, into the dead of night
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
Oh - Into the dead of night, into the dead of night
Where no one knows our names
Sunrise brings a clean slate
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
We look pale under relentless neon light
Clenching to the ticket through the night
cause this road will take me right into
A never-ending dawn with you
Here's to never seeing that town again
What if we could leave this place behind?
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
Oh - Into the dead of night, into the dead of night
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
Oh - Into the dead of night, into the dead of night
Where no one knows our names
Sunrise brings a clean slate
Oh - We follow the headlights, follow the headlights
What if we could leave this place behind?
