One Headlight Lyrics by The Ready Set

I’ll Be Waiting

0

[Verse 1: The Ready Set]
So long ago, I don't remember when
That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well they she died easy of a broken-heart disease
As I listened through the cemetery trees
I seen the sun coming up at the funeral at dawn
The long broken arm of human law
Now it always seemed such a waste, she always had a pretty face
I wondered how she hung around this place

[Chorus: The Ready Set]
Hey, come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
Me and Cinderella , we put it all together
We can drive it home with one headlight

[Verse 2: The Ready Set]
She said, "It's cold, it feels like Independence Day
And I can't break away from this parade"
Well there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
And I seen the sun up ahead at the county-line bridge
Saying all there's good and nothingness is dead
We'll run until she's out of breath, she ran until there's nothing left
She hit the end, it's just her window ledge

[Chorus: The Ready Set]
Hey, come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
Me and Cinderella , we put it all together
We can drive it home with one headlight

[Verse 3: Alyssa Bernal]
This place is old, it feels just like a beat-up truck
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
It smells of cheap wine, cigarettes
This place is always such a mess
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn

[Verse 3: The Ready Set]
I'm so alone and I feel just like somebody else
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I'm not the same
And somewhere here in between the city walls and dying dreams
I think her death, it must be killing me, yeah

[Chorus: The Ready Set]
Hey, come on, try a little, nothing is forever
There's got to be something better than in the middle
Me and Cinderella , we put it all together
We can drive it home, yeah
With one headlight, with one headlight (One headlight)
With one headlight, with one headlight
One headlight
