Lyrics

[00:11.64] You took the tunnel route home.
[00:13.82] You'd never taken that way with me before.
[00:18.60] Did you feel a need for change?
[00:23.95] Apologies on your fingernails,
[00:27.51] Love flickered in the city of lights
[00:32.00] Like intermittent radio waves.
[00:36.79]
[00:39.51] I don't need your tears
[00:46.26] I don't want your love
[00:48.84] I've just got to get home.
[00:51.15]
[00:52.34] And I feel like I'm breaking up
[00:55.71] But I wanted to stay.
[00:58.92] Headlights on the hillside
[01:02.24] Don't take me this way.
[01:05.51] I don't want you to hold me
[01:08.79] I want you to pray,
[01:12.12] 'Cause it's bigger than us.
[01:15.79]
[01:31.61] You went where the horses cry
[01:34.05] You'd never taken that way with me before.
[01:38.87] Did you feel a need for a change?
[01:44.72] Guilt smeared across your lips
[01:46.98] I was tired and cold from the window.
[01:52.24] You're tired nothing has changed.
[01:56.14]
[01:59.61] I don't need your tears
[02:06.33] I don't want your love
[02:08.90] I've just got to get home.
[02:11.21]
[02:12.42] And I feel like I'm breaking up
[02:15.71] But I wanted to stay.
[02:18.97] Headlights on the hillside
[02:22.26] Don't take me this way.
[02:25.57] I don't want you to hold me
[02:28.78] I want you to pray,
[02:32.14] 'Cause it's bigger than us.
[02:35.99]
[03:12.48] And I feel like I'm breaking up
[03:15.81] But I wanted to stay.
[03:19.07] Headlights on the hillside
[03:22.37] Don't take me this way.
[03:25.64] I don't want you to hold me
[03:28.96] I want you to pray,
[03:32.26] 'Cause it's bigger than us.
[03:35.98]
[03:38.84] And I feel like I'm breaking up
[03:42.13] But I wanted to stay.
[03:45.41] Headlights on the hillside
[03:48.66] Don't take me this way.
[03:51.96] I don't want you to hold me
[03:55.24] I want you to pray,
[03:58.50] 'Cause it's bigger than us.
[04:03.36]
[04:05.11] And I feel like I'm breaking up
[04:08.45] But I wanted to stay.
[04:11.72] Headlights on the hillside
[04:14.97] Don't take me this way.
[04:18.27] I don't want you to hold me
[04:21.56] I want you to pray,
[04:24.85] 'Cause it's bigger than us.
[04:30.65]
