Headlights – Hallelujah lyrics

Album: Small Steps, Heavy Hooves

Smiling sweetly said she made you smoke your cigs all outside
This could be your last time, this would be your last time now
What’s a few if the hotel don’t mind

Remember how her eyes would shine
They made you come home on time
What’s the plan for tonight calling just to say hi love
How about just us tonight

Oh and oh and oh her eyes always fixing to tell me
Our love is gorgeous
While she would hum so softly

Hallelujah

And we would take those walks at night
And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn’t catch our breath

Blood collects and clots
The color creeps from carpet to tile
When you signed you seemed fine, when you signed you seemed fine
A stiff drink will change a mind

Memories aren’t for keeping, mostly just for leaving behind
They’ll remember alright, we remember alright now
A thousand memories and too much wine

Oh and oh and oh the song she would sing it so sweetly
The drunken stupor
It had you slurring it out loud

Hallelujah

And we would take those walks at night
And we would dance there in the kitchen till we couldn’t catch our breath

Cold limbs, casino carpet, and linoleum tiles
You sleep
Waking up to the choir singing

Hallelujah

Remember how her eyes would shine, they made you come home on time
