In a Honda   On the 5 to LA   With the New Year   Just some hours away      I turn to my left and try   To capture your smile   As headlights are dancing round   Just like fireflies      In a soft tone   You are starting to sing   To a record   That you told me to bring      We listen to awkward rhymes   For mile after mile   The world's flying by outside   As a flash of light      A flash of light, a flash of light   From all the cars and exit-signs   The cars and exit-signs   A flash of light, a flash of light   When our shadows collide   Scatter all around      In a Motel   On a bed, as we rest,   You examine   Every hair on my chest      You ask me to turn around   And not close my eyes   My muscles betray me now   When I try to find      A flash of light, a flash of light   A tiny motion in your eyes   A motion in your eyes   A flash of light, a flash of light   When our shadows break out   Crash into the night      A flash of light, a flash of light   An open crack in every cloud   A crack in every cloud   I'm paralyzed, I'm paralyzed   When our shadows unite   Stretched before our eyes
