The Tears In Your Eyes

verse 1 I'm driving tonight all I see is your face wonder what you're doing now With my foot to the floor in this go nowhere race I'd quit you but I don't know how The devil behind me I feel his hot breath wonder why I don't give in Another poor loser that's hell bent for death Stayin' one mile ahead of the end verse 2 Just twisting and turning on these mountain roads Just racing, chasing the wind The devil, he's laughing, I don't wanna go I ain't ready to pay for my sins All I can hear is the motor's sweet whine And the rush of the cold autumn wind Rememberin' back to the days you were mine Can never go back there again verse 3 The devil he sits like a bird on my shoulder He laughs and he whispers your name He says I bet you wish one time you could hold her Before you check out of the game He screams in my ear, says kid let me steer You're driving just like an old woman Man give it some gas or you'll get nowhere fast Can't you see you're already forgotten verse 4 The oil is burning we're twistin' and turning The engine is smelling like brimstone I hear the trees calling like tears their leaves falling I know that it's time to go home I'm praying to Jesus, the devil, he's laughing No witnesses to my demise I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel And dream of the tears in your eyes I let go of the wheel in my coffin of steel And dream of the tears in your eyes dream of the tears in your eyes
