Coyote (feat. Gregory Alan Isakov)

I saw a coyote running down the highway last night

And it made me think of you

Yeah, it made me think of you

For a second as my headlights reflected in his eyes

It looked like he'd been cryin'

It looked like he'd been cryin'

Trying to find somebody or some place

He's always looking for

Pretty things that can't be held

Can't return the love they felt

You're only gonna hurt yourself

Holding out your hand

But I still think of you sometimes

And the flash of fear in your eyes

I got too close and now I understand

Now I understand

He said, hey, I know it's been a minute

I hope I didn't wake you up

But I just got back in town

And I'm over by your house

I can't defend the way I've been

Or the shadows where I hide

But baby let me in, and at least just let me try

Try to find a way to change your mind

Before the light comes in

Pretty things that can't be held

Can't return the love they felt

You're only gonna hurt yourself

Holding out your hand

But I still think of you sometimes

And the flash of fear in your eyes

I got too close and now I understand

Now I understand

I saw a coyote running down the highway last night

And it made me think of you

Yeah, it made me think of you
