Lyrics
BEAT THE SUNSET WEST
© Kurt Hagan & Phil Swann
VERSE 1
Read her note like a headline, givin' me the deadline
Don't expect me home when the day is done
Knew I couldn't stop her so I'd try to stop the clock so I'd
Never face the night and bein' all alone
The sun is flyin' to the
Far horizon
But I can't let it disappear
CHORUS
I'm gonna beat the sunset west
Night's got me on the run
As long as I got the daylight in my eyes
Tonight'll never come
VERSE 2
Red-linin', oil burnin', smokin' engine, rubber turnin'
Chewin' up the highway spittin' miles out
Steerin' wheel knows what to do, follow signs with "W"
Turnin' shades of purple as the day runs down
The sun bursts into flames
My eyes are burnin'
I feel her shadow on my heart
CHORUS
BRIDGE
When I hit the west coast, gonna commandeer a boat
Make the captain take me straight across the sea
Or steal a chopper, better yet, I better get a fighter jet
Tearin' through the time zones to stop her leavin' me
The sun is flyin' to the
Far horizon
I can't face the night alone
CHORUS
