Verse 1
I saw you park outside
Just across the road
Your headlights found my window
Like they already knew the road
I stood there in the silence
Watching through the blind
You never came to my front door…
Then you drove out of my life.
Chorus
Did you have something to say, girl?
Or did the silence get its way?
You were one step from changing everything…
Then you just drove away.
Did you have something to tell me?
Something you couldn’t quite explain?
You left your tyre tracks on my heart…
Then disappeared again.
Verse 2
Maybe you were holding
Words too hard to say
Maybe your heart brought you here…
Then your mind got in the way.
I watched your shadow waiting
Behind that windshield glow
What kept your hand from knocking…
I guess I’ll never know.
Chorus
Did you have something to say, girl?
Or did the silence get its way?
You were one step from changing everything…
Then you just drove away.
Did you have something to tell me?
Something you couldn’t quite explain?
You left your tyre tracks on my heart…
Then disappeared again.
Bridge
Maybe you were waiting…
For me to open up
While I stood there at the window…
Waiting for you inside.
Funny how forever
Can slip away that fast…
Two people waiting on each other…
Until the moment passed.
Verse 3
Now every time headlights
Slow outside my place
For just a second, I still hope
I’ll see your face.
But every car keeps moving
Like that night long ago
Leaving me with one old question…
That only you would know.
Final Chorus
Did you have something to say, girl?
Or did the silence get its way?
You were one step from changing everything…
Then you just drove away.
Did you have something to tell me?
Something you couldn’t quite explain?
You left your tyre tracks on my heart…
Then disappeared again.
Funny how forever…
Can slip away that fast.
