Follow Your Tail Lights Home

An August night on County Q

A summer rain just washed through
The leaves are shaking off their dew
As I follow your taillights home

The windows down and the radios on
The crickets sing an ancient song
While Buddy Holly sings along
As I follow your taillights home

We’re all searching for a light
To shine us home in darkest night
Trusting in another’s heart
Can guide us thru the hardest part

A gentle fog drifts thru the trees
And covers love with mystery
But I see all I need to see
As I follow your taillights home

Across the bay, a lonely loon
Singing out till there are two…
Soon I’ll be by the fire with you
As I follow your taillights home

Sometimes we all lose our way
And can’t take back the things we say
Trusting in another’s heart
Can guide us thru the hardest parts

An August night on County Q
These 30 years still fit like new
I’m glad these hearts knew what to do
As I follow your taillights home
