Objects In The Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are Lyrics - Bat Out Of Hell Ii: Back Into Hell - Meat Loaf

The skies were pure and the fields were green 

And the sun was brighter than it's ever been 

When I grew up with my best friend Kenny 

We were close as any brothers that you ever knew 

 

It was always summer and the future called 

We were ready for adventures and we wanted them all 

There was so much left to dream 

And so much time to make it real 

 

But I can still recall the sting of all 

The tears when he was gone 

They said he crashed and burned 

I know I'll never learn 

Why any boy should die so young

We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune 

We got in trouble but we sure got around 

There are times I think I see him peeling out of the dark 

I think he's right behind me now and he's gaining ground 

 

But it was long ago and it was far away 

Oh God, it seems so very far 

And if life is just a highway 

Then the soul is just a car 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

They are 

They are 

 

Photos 

 

And when the sun descended and the night arose 

I heard my father cursing everyone he knows 

He was dangerous and drunk and defeated 

And corroded by failure and envy and hate 

 

There were endless winters and the dreams would freeze 

Nowhere to hide and no leaves on the trees 

And my father's eyes were blank 

As he hit me again and again and again 

 

I know I still believe he'd never let me leave 

I had to run away alone 

So many threats and fears, so many wasted years 

Before my life became my own 

 

And though the nightmares should be over 

Some of the terrors are still intact 

I'll hear that ugly coarse and violent voice 

And then he grabs me from behind 

And then he pulls me back 

 

But it was long ago and it was far away 

Oh God, it seems so very far 

And if life is just a highway 

Then the soul is just a car 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

 

There was a beauty living on the edge of town 

She always put the top up and the hammer down 

And she taught me everything I'll ever know 

About the mystery and the muscle of love 

 

The stars would glimmer and the moon would glow 

I'm in the back seat with my Julie like a Romeo 

And the signs along the highway all said 

Caution: Kids At Play 

 

Those were the rights of spring and we did everything 

There was salvation every night 

We got our dreams reborn and our upholstery torn 

But everything we tried was right 

 

She used her body just like a bandage 

She used my body just like a wound 

I'll probably never know where she disappeared 

But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now 

Just like an angel rising up from a tomb 

 

But it was long ago and it was far away 

Oh God, it seems so very far 

And if life is just a highway 

Then the soul is just a car 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

And objects in the rear view mirror 

May appear closer than they are 

 

She used her body just like a bandage 

She used my body just like a wound 

I'll probably never know where she disappeared 

But I can see her rising up out of the back seat now
