Splashing through the water on the motorway The headlights shine every drop of rain And every mile takes a minute and every minute lasts an hour And there's so many miles 'till I'm home again And staring through the gathering mists on the window I see that paying the price came so soon And I swear that those eyes cut deeper into me Than they've ever cut into you Ch: - And still the fires won't go out That no power of the mind can drive away And still all I see are your eyes calling And the sadness and the hatred and the love and the pain Everybody knows this aching like an old friend And everybody feels it the same But I'm out here in this desperate night in the middle of nowhere Driving faster, faster through the rain Ch: - And still the fires won't go out And still I wish I was home And still all I ever see are your eyes calling And still I love you with my whole soul Am I trying to raise a toast when the glass is already empty Am I paying the price now the wasted years are through I swear that those eyes cut deeper into me Than they'll ever cut into you
