Headlights streaking through the darkness
In the way back of a station wagon
Stars all looking down and they’re pitiless
Headlights streaking through the darkness
I close my eyes and see myself skiing
Cause all day and night that’s what I’ve been doing
Too young to be saying any goodbyes
I close my eyes and see myself skiing
The tires and the road have a meeting
They’re saying that I’m better off sleeping
They see what the stars are reflecting
I drift off to the sound of their murmuring
Headlights streaking through the darkness
In the way back of a station wagon
The sky’s clear and the stars are pressing down
The tires and the road make a sleepy sound
