Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are
The skies were pure and the fields were green
- The skies were pure and the fields were green
- And the sun was brighter than it's ever been
- When I grew up with my best friend Kenny
- We were close as any brothers than you ever knew
- It was always Summer and the future called
- We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all
- And there was so much left to dream
- And so much time to make it real
- But I can still recall the sting of
- All the tears when he was gone
- They said he crashed and burned
- I know I'll never learn why any boy should die so young
- We were racing we were soldiers of fortune
- We got in trouble but we sure got around
- There are times I think I see him
- Peeling out of the dark
- I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground
- But it was long ago and it was far away
- Oh God it seems so very far
- And if life is just a highway then the soul
- Is just a car
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- They are
- And when the sun descended and the night arose
- I heard my father cursing everyone he knows
- He was dangerous and drunk and defeated
- And corroded by failure and envy and hate
- There were endless Winters and the dreams would freeze
- No where to hide and no leaves on the trees
- And my father's eyes were blank as he hit me again
- And again and again
- I know I still believe he'd never let me leave
- I had to run away alone so
- Many threats and fears so many wasted years before my life
- Became my own
- And though the nightmares should be over
- Some of the terrors are still intact
- I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice
- And then he grabs me from behind
- And then he pulls me back
- But it was long ago and it was far away
- Oh God it seems so very far
- And if life is just a highway then the soul
- Is just a car
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- There was a beauty living on the edge of town
- And she always put the top up and the hammer down
- And she taught me everything I'll ever know
- About the mystery and the muscle of love
- The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow
- I'm in the back seat with my
- Julie like a Romeo
- And the signs along the highway all said
- Caution kids at play
- Those were the rights of Spring and we did everything
- There was salvation every night
- We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn
- But everything we tried was right
- She used her body just like a bandage she used my body
- Just like a wound
- I'll probably never know where she disappeared
- But I can see her rising up
- Out of the back seat now just like
- An angel rising up from a tomb
- But it was long ago and it was far away
- Oh God it seems so very far
- And if life is just a highway then the soul
- Is just a car
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear
- Closer than they are
- They are
- And objects in the rear view mirror may appear

- She used her body just like a bandage she used my body
- Just like a wound
- I'll probably never know where she disappeared
- But I can see her rising up
- Out of the back seat now
