What you were, what it was
You were fixing to get lost
I tried to tame you
It wasn't long till you had taken off
Lightly, I was on your mind
Lonely on the road at night
You were still the wild one
But what is it you are running from?
A scared life
You're staring down the barrel of a gun
No pistol could get you
No rifle could shoot fast enough
Some try to love you
But it's never long before you shake them off
Lightly, I was on your mind
Lonely on the road at night
Lights so low, a glare in your eyes
Jump the gun and you were too shy
Lightly, I was on your mind
Lonely on the road at night
Lights so low, a glare in your eyes
Jump the gun and you were too shy
