Resolution No. 2 Lyrics

Gonna start the motor on the last drive of the year

I got 20 miles to town

To think about mistakes I made, and people I let down

I got no girl, it's only me now and my regret

But there's a room full of possibility:

Blonde, redhead, and brunette

You wave goodbye to days fading in the rearview

Push it down

Bury the needle on this country road

Don't let up

The future's caught in headlights in the windshield

Turn the radio up

Head west

Baby let's go

It's five minutes to countdown

I got champagne in my hand

They put it in a plastic cup

You can't get glass unless you're with the band

I watch the couples slow dance

A few people sing along

And then the tv set

In the corner says that the year that's past is going

Going

Gone

You wave goodbye to days fading in the rearview

Push it down

Bury the needle on this country road

Don't let up

The future's caught in headlights in the windshield

Turn the radio up

Head west

Baby let's go

Gonna start the motor on the first drive of the year

I got a half a mile to town

To think about the things I want

The friends that I know now

I'll try to make it up
