baby blues

You were driving the back roads last night
Under the light of the stars
Past fallow fields and broken-down barns
When you reached the house with no porch light
You switched off the hum of the car
And sat alone in the dark

You always smiled through those baby blues
No one knew that you had
From a mother who's much too loose
And a father who's much too sad
You remembered how he cried that night
“Please don't leave us alone,
Please don't break up our home.”

After the credits rolled inside your mind
You turned the key in the car
And drove back home through the dark.

You turned the key in the car
And drove back home through the dark.
