[Verse 1]
Used up all my second chances
Squandered love on brief romances
It's got a thing a young man dances with
When he's a dancer
The highway's long and seldom wide enough
To let life pass you by
It catches up when you and time won't take no for an answer
[Chorus]
You run wild open all those years
You look down to spinning wheels and stripping gears
It's a cold and empty house in your headlights
For silence can be deafening sometimes
But I'm making peace with all this peace and quiet
[Verse 2]
Wokе up with the morning rain
Down upon my window pane
Perfеct harmony with faded love
You won't catch me complaining
Have a lot of things worth doing
Search for life but need these [?]
There's nothing left of me and you
That I'd consider saving
[Chorus]
Watch these movies in my bed
Rewrite the endings in my head
But shadow boxing ain't no kind of fight
So let the credits roll and turn out the lights
I'm making peace with all this peace and quiet
[Chorus]
You run wild open all those years
You look down to spinning wheels and you're stripped to gears
And it's a cold and empty house in your headlights
For silence can be deafening sometimes
But I'm making peace with all this peace and quiet
Yeah the silence can be deafening sometimes
But I'm making peace with all this peace and quiet
