Headlights Lyrics - 1983 - Sophie Hunger

4- Headlights 

You told your tales with pictures 

I tried to make it seem good 

I borrowed the heart of a preacher 

And believed as hard as I could 

You don't know how much I worked there 

You don't know the risk I took 

You hardly, hardly saw me 

Behind the mirror round my neck

Refrain: 

Caught in your Headlights 

I had to close my eyes 

Caught in your Headlights 

I had so little time 

Caught in your Headlights 

I couldn't turn back 

I was never myself 

I was you 

I forgot 

You sold your smiles untroubled 

Your light was on every face 

You were too young to know that it mattered 

That every time someone must pay 

I bought your every word then 

I didn't have my side 

I was too old to learn my first lesson 

So I dance with tied hands in mind 

Photos 

Refrain: 

Caught in your Headlights 

I had to close my eyes 

Caught in your Headlights 

I had so little time 

Caught in your Headlights 

I couldn't turn back 

I was never myself 

I was you 

I forgot
