Streetlight

Look in the rear view, now I've gotta clear view Most beautiful landscape I've ever seen and I've seen 'em around the world baby girl, better believe No feeling like having you next to me. I mean it respectfully; I hate the distance When i'm on the road and you're not there- I won't admit it; too often caught up in my pride- but without you it just ain't the same ride. There's something to be said when a man misses a woman pushing the pain aside in stride like it's nothing But something happens when that song comes on and I hold you in my arms but I know that you're gone Drawn to memories when we were one soul; two-halves bound into a whole being, united in a similar state of dreaming You are me, I am you, baby feel what I'm feeling I miss you, won't ever forget you Every time is like the first time I met you Truth be told, this never gets old You are the one girl that i'll ever wanna hold and mold into a goddess, now you're holy enough to control me Only you can show me the light from a shadow so lonely You know me. and I'm proud to say This is one thing that I will never betray Look in the rear view, now I've gotta clear view Most beautiful landscape I've ever seen. and I've seen 'em around the world baby girl, better believe No feeling like having you next to me. I mean it respectfully; I hate the distance When i'm on the road and you're not there- I won't admit it; too often caught up in my pride- but without you it just ain't the same ride. There's something to be said when a man misses a woman Pushing the pain aside in stride like it's nothing But something happens when that song comes on and I hold you in my arms but I know that you're gone I ride along until the night meets the dawn and you're the streetlight that leads me beyond In wonder, I'm still under your spell Keep driving, but I'll never say farewell
