EXIT WOUND
There’s an exit on this highway that leads me to you
I was standing there as you, sauntered through the door
Couldn’t tell at all, what it was that you were looking for
There were folks around; There were drinks to buy
There was music playing; but I don’t know why
I just stood there stunned like I was nailed right to the floor
Well with that first look, I was shot clean through by you
It didn’t hurt a bit as it ran me through and through
Then it tumbled, and it turned
And deep inside I burned
Got an exit wound as big as Texas, I swear it’s true
But I, felt that there was something; something more than nothing
That could link me to you
And I, searched for something special; show you something special
About me for you
There’s an exit on this highway that leads me to you
It’s a crowded, cratered, road, we all cling to
There are people in the breakdown lane
Lost and scared, I’m feeling much the same
But I keep on looking for that exit sign to you
When you left that night holding onto someone else’s arm
I couldn’t smell the rain or see the coming of the storm
Yes, there were empty glasses on that hi-top table
‘Cause I drank ‘em all and got quite unstable
And it feels like maybe I might do me some personal harm
But I, felt that there was something; something more than nothing
That could link me to you.
And I, searched for something special; show you something special
About me for you
There’s an exit on this highway that leads me to you
Now most folks think that this here life is fun
Just kick some tires and let that highway run
First you come and then you go
But mostly you’re just alone
That’s why I keep on looking for that exit sign
Keep on looking for that exit sign
I keep on looking for that exit sign to you
