[Verse 1]
Tire tracks stretch from here to who knows where
The smell of car still hanging in the air
The dust and truth are setting in
You're gone and you're not coming back again
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all happened so fast, out the door with your bags
No explanation (no explanation)
No hesitation
And I'm still standing here, frozen with tears in my eyes
[Chorus]
'Cause I was hoping for brake lights
Flashin' red in the middle of the street and the door opens
And you get out, say you don't know what you were thinkin'
Never gonna leave, but no, I didn't even see brake lights
(Brake lights, brake lights, brake lights)
[Verse 2]
Am I supposed to go back in the house, now
Or get into my car and chase you down?
(Chase you down)
Well, honestly, I don't know what to do
Still can't wrap my head around the fact that I lost you
[Pre-Chorus]
And it all happened so fast, out the door with your bags
No explanation (no explanation)
No hesitation
And I'm still standing here, frozen with tears in my eyes
[Chorus]
'Cause I was hoping for brake lights
Flashin' red in the middle of the street and the door opens
And you get out, say you don't know what you were thinkin'
Never gonna leave, but no, I didn't even see brake lights
(Brake lights, brake lights)
No, I didn't even see brake lights
[Bridge]
I saw zero to eighty
Your bright headlights fadin' out into the dark
And I'm still in the dark
'Cause it happened so fast
Out the door with your bags
[Outro]
When I was hoping for brake lights
Flashin' red in the middle of the street and the door opens
And you get out, say you don't know what you were thinkin'
Never gonna leave, but no, I didn't even see brake lights
Flashin' red in the middle of the street and the door opens
And you get out, say you don't know what you were thinkin'
Never gonna leave, but no, I didn't even see brake lights
(Brake lights)
Brake lights
(No, I didn't even see brake lights)
