Soon
A bright and slightly cloudy day, perfect for a ride
Hopped on my motorcycle and hit the countryside
About four miles down the road's and intersection hill and curve
Where I let off the gas and lean into the turn
But as I approached the crest of this familiar hill
An old man turned in front of me and time nearly stood still
Now the way I look at this, ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
In the blink of an eye, his car just feet ahead
I could hear my heart beating in my head
And I could see him panic as I hit my brakes to slow
A woman in a van behind him there's nowhere to go
I had only one choice, not by me but decided
Must let go of the brake, swerve beside the van and behind him
Now the way I look at this, ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
Oh I know I'm moving fast but time is moving slow
Again my options through my head but still nowhere to go
And he's committed at this point as I begin to swerve
My windows getting bigger but I'm running out of nerve
With just inches to spare on either side of me
I looked into the van and I could see her eyes were green
And I could see a fear in her I could not see in me
When I took my eyes off hers, time was back to speed
Now the way I look at this ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
Hopped on my motorcycle and hit the countryside
About four miles down the road's and intersection hill and curve
Where I let off the gas and lean into the turn
But as I approached the crest of this familiar hill
An old man turned in front of me and time nearly stood still
Now the way I look at this, ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
In the blink of an eye, his car just feet ahead
I could hear my heart beating in my head
And I could see him panic as I hit my brakes to slow
A woman in a van behind him there's nowhere to go
I had only one choice, not by me but decided
Must let go of the brake, swerve beside the van and behind him
Now the way I look at this, ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
Oh I know I'm moving fast but time is moving slow
Again my options through my head but still nowhere to go
And he's committed at this point as I begin to swerve
My windows getting bigger but I'm running out of nerve
With just inches to spare on either side of me
I looked into the van and I could see her eyes were green
And I could see a fear in her I could not see in me
When I took my eyes off hers, time was back to speed
Now the way I look at this ain't the way I look at that
No matter what happens next, next may never last
Oh take a look at this, take a look at that
No matter what happens soon, soon will soon be in the past
