about

An early release from our upcoming album - Long Time to be Gone!

lyrics

Hey hey, watchin' my baby leavin' town
He says it's dyin' and he don't wanna stick around
One thing I won't soon forget...
The sight of you in your Sunday best
One thing more to confess...

Chorus:

You're a shipwrecked son whose plans are undone
Driftin' along on a wave
A shipwrecked son, your plans are undone
Watchin' your taillights fade away
Watchin your taillights fadin'.. fadin' away

V 2

Lowdown, that's the way things have gone
Company's leavin'; don't need me to come along
Oh my my, such an awful sight
I've been drinkin' all through the night
Can't keep myself upright

Chorus

What's the point in tryin'
When I can't stop cryin'?
All those hours lyin' awake...

The daughters and the sons
Tryin' the find a way back
Their plans are all undone.
Watchin' their taillights fade away
Watchin' their taillights fadin'... fadin'...
