Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Somewhere in the panhandle of Texas
On a midnight ride, just me and my old man
We finally found a few long-lost connections
And we learned sometimes a bridge you burn still stands
We talked about our old friends and our exes
And agreed we both had dreams that just need plans
I thanked him for the tough love and the lessons
And he finally admitted I'm a man
Lord, I'd love to take that ride again
[Chorus]
When the future's too far for the headlights
And the rearview's too dark for looking back
When all you got in your life
Is the glow of those dashboard lights
And whoever's riding with you in that cab
You really get to know what's going on in someone's head
On a long ride in a short bed
[Verse 2]
I guess that's why I love a late-night highway
When there's hardly any other cars at all
Just because there's no one riding shotgun
That don't mean that I can't have a talk
You may say I'm prayin' to my Maker
Or you may say I'm talkin' to myself
I don't know if it's crazy or holy, hell, it may be
All I know for sure
Is it sure helps
[Chorus]
When the future's too far for the headlights
And the rearview's too dark for looking back
When all you got in your life
Is the glow of those dashboard lights
And whoever's riding with you in that cab
You really get to know what's going on in someone's head
On a long ride in a short bed
[Outro]
Son, you rarely get to know what's going on in your own head
On a long ride in a short bed
