Rearview Heartache

Left my guns, they couldn't come with me.
No long good bye, nothing to read.
Stared down the highway, out across the land,
And through the rearview, at a broken man.
All along he's listening, ear against the wall,
For a chance to speak, but says nothing at all.

I know the moonlight shining down on me will shine on you.
Here's where it all begins,
Another rear view heartache.

While the same moonlight that shines on me still shines on you,
We re-live it again,
Another rear view heartache.

Sirens scream, strangers shout,
Children cry, they scream out loud.
I left that world somewhere in the past,
Lit up at midnight, where the moonlight casts.
Shining through the rear view, out across the land.
That strange mans watching, with my guns in hand.

I know the moonlight shining down on me will shine on you.
Here's where it all begins,
Another rear view heartache.

While the same moonlight that shines on me still shines on you,
We re-live it again,
Another rear view heartache.

I've been up, and I've been down.
Some might say, I've been around.
Look through the rear view, across the land.
In the midnight sun, who was that man?
But I see him listening, ear against the wall,
Now all those things, well they all seam so small.

I know the moonlight shining down on me will shine on you.
Here's where it all begins,
Another rear view heartache.

While the same moonlight that shines on me still shines on you,
We re-live it again,
Another rear view heartache.
