Red Eyes

And I see red eyes behind the headlights again
And he's so fly no mater how high he gets
Two more one night stands in the dark
Keeps both their hearts from just fallin' apart
Drinkin' the loneliness up just one more time
And I see red eyes behind the lights
And I see red eyes behind the lights

She been this sober a year and a half
And all those things she tried to leave in the past was here
Living in this small town
And all her family tried to keep her away from him
'Cause judging by the alcohol on his breath
He's up to no good again
Then she gets so lonely
Until the teardrops turn into wine

And I see red eyes behind the headlights again
And he's so fly no mater how high he gets
Two more one night stands in the dark
Keeps both their hearts from just fallin' apart
Drinkin' the loneliness up just one more time
And I see red eyes behind the lights
And I see red eyes behind the lights

He had that Firebird, that feelin' inside her
He knew what drives her, ran her mom despite her
Voted the cutest couple by the seniors, while in high school
But a different tone while at home creepin' breakin' all the rules
Her side of the family was the church crowd class act
For his it was the roughnecks, wrong side of the tracks
And her momma said baby don't throw your life away
And she said I love him mamma everything is gonna be okay
Her mother's so upset crying took her car phone
And the daughter said you better learn to love him mamma or I be gone
Then that car rolled in the drive she kissed her folks goodbye
And she said you got to realize there's more to him than weird eyes

And I see red eyes behind the headlights again
And he's so fly no mater how high he gets
Two more one night stands in the dark
Keeps both their hearts from just fallin' apart
Drinkin' the loneliness up just one more time
And I see red eyes behind the lights
And I see red eyes behind the lights
