This wave of darkness Home to only shadows Part of our love has died We drive for miles But we have no destination Wells form in baby blue eyes Darting, asking questions Stretching her arms out far To be held This child, she will never be held again She looks for answers still As recent as yesterday But nothing comes Only visions of Highway 99 The brightness of the crossing line Reflects father's eyes on Highway 99 Oh! This wave of darkness When will it be shed 'Till the day every step she takes Be it left or right Still leads her into the fire Still reaching out Crying baby tears for a mother's arms That let her go on
