Evening Out

From his house on the Jersey Turnpike
He could see the glow from miles away
And even though he thought he'd never get there
He's making time for a call today

There he is again, in a flaming fireball
There he was tonight, with a gem in his hand
He's a wanted man, gone but always inside you
And he's dancing as fast as he can
It's evening out

Just one sip and you're on a three-week bender
Heat and light, mercy and grace
Yet another note stamped "return to sender"
He once said "true love knows neither time nor space"
It's evening out

You drive right by jack-knife tractor-trailer
In his own world before he hit the skids
And I was on the street, in the first light of springtime
That's when I saw you, or at least thought I did
It's evening out

Red light, green light, moonlight
In the backseat of a speeding car
Red light, green light, moonlight
I can't tell if that's a satellite or a star
It's evening out
