Tonight Is the Night I Fell Asleep at the Wheel / / Hidden Sun (Hidden Track) |
| Driving home to be with you |
| The highway’s dividing, the city’s in view |
| As usual, I’m almost on time |
| You’re the last thing that’s on my mind |
| I wish I could tell you the way that I feel |
| But tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel |
| No commotion, no screaming brakes |
| Most of it’s over before I awake |
| From the ceiling, my coffee cup drips |
| While out my window, the horizon does flips |
| The worst part was hitting the ground — |
| Not the feeling so much as the sound |
| Can’t help but wonder if all this is real |
| Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel |
| Rubberneck traffic and passersby |
| And Slow Motion Walter the fire engine guy |
| Stand around with their mouths open wide |
| I heard some idiot ask if someone’s inside |
| With the Jaws of Life they tried and they tried |
| Nobody here can know how I feel |
| Cause tonight is the night I fell asleep at the wheel |
| I guess it’s over now |
| Cause I’ve never seen so much |
| Never seen so much, never seen so much |
| Never seen so much, never seen so much |
| I guess it’s over now |
| Cause I’ve never seen so much |
| Never seen so much, never seen so much |
| Never seen so much, never seen so much |
| So much blood |
| In all the confusion, there’s something serene |
| I’m just a posthumous part of the scene |
| Now I’m floating above looking in |
| As the radio blares and wheels spin |
| I can see my face slump with a grin |
| And you… you're the last thing on my mind |
| You’re the last thing on my mind |
| You’re the last thing on my mind |
| You’re the last thing on my mind |
