Sittin' in the Backseat

lyrics

I'm sittin' in the backseat, leaning on the window
I can see your lips move though I can't hear you
Over the stereo

Puttin' all your anger down
on the floorboard
You don't even realize
Starin' into his eyes,
Victim of your own accord
Upset like the weather
Ruffled up your feathers
It's a big ole fiery mess
Can't feel my feet in this wreck,
Ten seconds til we're severed

I'm sittin' in the backseat, leaning on the window
I can see your lips move though I can't hear you
Over the stereo

Tempers roared like dragon's breath
N' I came face to face with death
Couldn't run the other way
Numb to the core...I just prayed
Held on so tight to my breath..
He loves you, don't you know
Promised he won't let you go
I saw him pull you from this wreck
An' I hoped for one more breath
To say I love you so...

I'm sittin in the backseat, leaning on the window
It's getting cold now, I'll see you somehow
Heaven's calling me to go

I'm sittin in the backseat, leaning on the window
I don't see your lips move, no, I can't hear you
Over the stereo
