Broken Taillight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your boots by the door Mud on the floorboard grain I found your note in the ashtray Bent up from the rain Your truck still coughs in the drive One headlight burned out dead I keep that old pink receipt Folded in my coat instead [Pre-Chorus] And I hear your name In every slam I brace myself Then take it again [Chorus] Broken taillight Take me home Broken taillight I’m not alone When you turn back I turn too Broken taillight Still chasing you [Verse 2] Red scarf tangled on the chair Your ring on the sink edge line Half a pie in the window Cold as a busted sign I drove past your mama’s place Saw the porch swing sway Thought I’d be over this by now But I keep coming back that way [Pre-Chorus] And I hear your name In every slam I hold my breath Then let it crash [Chorus] Broken taillight Take me home Broken taillight I’m not alone When you turn back I turn too Broken taillight Still chasing you [Bridge] [Half-time] If you say my name I’ll pull right in If you leave me there I’ll start again One more turn One more mile I keep your ghost In the corner of the dial [Final Chorus] Broken taillight Take me home Broken taillight I’m not alone When you turn back I turn too Broken taillight Still chasing you Broken taillight Take me home Broken taillight I’m not alone When you turn back I turn too Broken taillight Still chasing you
