作曲 : Vanessa Kathryn Peters

You tried to hold my gaze

But I just looked away

Watched a hail mary pass on the screen

It's the first day of the new year

It's the perfect day to finally say what I mean

And man that quarterback’s off to a great start

He’s a hero now, he’s won the nation’s heart

And I wish I had a throwing arm, I wish I had better aim

I wish I could convince you to stay in the game

But hail mary, mother of god

I’m hitting the road, could you come along?

I've been writing love letters out on the blacktop

And later on I can barely read what I wrote

And I could use a copilot

Maybe you could help me take notes

So i turned off my brain, I turned off my heart

I turned off the porch light and I turned off the stars

I packed a suitcase of regret to take with me

I closed the front door, threw it into the backseat

I keep my eye on them in the rearview

They’re always there to see me through

But hail mary, mother of god

I’m hitting the road, could you come along?

I've been writing love letters out on the blacktop

And later on I can barely read what I wrote

And I could use a copilot

Maybe you could help me take note

I turn off my car back in the drive

I’m kind of lucky I made it home alive

Not sure how much of this I’ve got left

But I know that I can’t do it by myself
