Fred Eaglesmith - Ninety-Nine Miles an Hour by Fred Eaglesmith lyrics

There's static on the radio Where the lightning breaks the sky Makes it hard to sing-a-long No matter how I try And I saw you dancing across the skyline Tonight with somebody new And you were singing the songs to him That I use to sing to you And it's twenty-five miles an hour The rain dancing off of the old window screen I think I'm gonna miss you much more Than you're ever gonna miss me Even you're ever gonna miss me I remember bright shiny lights Two hearts burning on fire Brand new shirts on Saturday nights I love you's that never got tired Quietly now, the tune gets lower The old fiddle broke it's string Finally you don't like the songs anymore And all you can change is the station And it's sixty-five miles an hour The rain dancing off of the old window screen I think I'm gonna miss you much more Than you're ever gonna miss me Even you're ever gonna miss me I got a friend Lives down by the river Likes to be alone Sometimes I wonder That he doesn't go crazy But it only goes to show And like the storm that rolled on with the stream They'll always stay the same Somebody said with a tear in his eye "You're better off, anyway" And it's ninety-nine miles an hour The rain dancing off of the old window screen I think I'm gonna miss you much more Than you're ever gonna miss me Even you're ever gonna miss me Even you're ever gonna miss me --- .
