the road

Hurts

Darling what?s your name
And can you hear me
Tell me why you?re out so late alone
The diamonds sparkle in your face I hold you
The gravel glistens black and red below

Hallow, you drift into the night
Hallow, girl.

When I close my eyes I see you.
When I close my eyes you?re here.
In the dead of the night I feel you.
When I open my eyes you disappear.

The metal wraps itself around your bones
And when it penetrates you it feels cold
As you were born you leave this world alone
A stranger on an unfamiliar road

That roaring engine sings you Hallelujah
The broken headlamp lights your path to God

Hallow, you drift into the light
Hallow, go home.

But when I close my eyes I see you.
When I close my eyes you?re here.
In the dead of the night I feel you.
When I open my eyes you disappear.
