Brandon Bernier - I-40 E Lyrics

I said "I'm headed off to college in a week
And I wanna make this work if we can"
But you said you don't feel it anymore
And I tried my best to understand

The night is passing by as I slowly close my eyes
But can't fall asleep cause I keep thinking of that night
And I don't wanna say goodbye
I wish it wasn't so hard to leave this all behind

I can't stop myself from looking in the rear view
I'm sitting in the backseat, heading east
I'm tracing constellations on the window
But they're way too far to reach

Headlights passing by as I slowly close my eyes
Reminiscing on the time we spent and hoping you're alright
And I never really said goodbye
I wish it wasn't so hard to leave this all behind
