Lyrics
Static on the radio
Bugs on the shield
One hand on the wheel
One out that window
Relentless noise
of wind and wheels
Between what was
and the wonder
Memories in the rearview
Standing still
they race away
and stack on the horizon
like sad snowdrifts… snowdrifts
Baptized by distance
Submerged in wind
Crucified today
everything you know
Blessed transitions
with love sanctified
You know it’s never easy
to say goodbye
Goodbye
Faces in the rearview
standing still
they race away
And stack on the horizon
like sad snowdrifts
Snowdrifts
That last moment
when you turn and go
The anti-climax
turns your tears to snow
Tears to snow
Static on the radio
Bugs on the shield
A bright sunrise
on your shoulder
Blessed arrival
The road sanctified
With one hand on the wheel
One out that window
Memories in the rearview
Standing still
they race away
Stack on the horizon
like sad snowdrifts
Snowdrifts
