The Drive Home
From the moment,
I say good bye
From the moment,
I walk away
From the moment,
I walk out your door
And down your drive way
I feel like crying.
It’s the sound of the ignition,
That sound of wires catching
It’s the wheels turning on gravel,
Now my heart is clenching
In my chest.
I know what comes next.
It’s the windshield blurrying,
As my love covers my eyes,
Oh I’ll never get used to,
The drive
home
Everyday is a mile
Everyday it gets harder
I try to smile
But I feel
Like a child
On their first day of school.
I don’t want to be separated.
call me crazy
maybe its true baby,
but, i’ll call it crazy in love
It’s the sound of the ignition,
That sound of wires catching
It’s the wheels turning on gravel,
Now my heart is clenching
In my chest.
I know what comes next.
It’s the windshield blurrying,
As my love covers my eyes,
Oh I’ll never get used to,
The drive
home
tomorrow
is my rest stop
tomorrow
are the arms I long to be in
my escape
from the rest of world
tomorrow
I’ll look into your eyes
And smile inside
Baby,
You are worth the drive
You will always be my prize
Waiting at the finish line.
It’s the sound of the ignition,
That sound of wires catching
It’s the wheels turning on gravel,
Now my heart is clenching
In my chest.
I know what comes next.
It’s the windshield blurrying,
As my love covers my eyes,
Oh I’ll never get used to,
The drive
home
the words never seem
to come out right
always catching in my throat
everytime.
Just look and see it in my heart
See it written in the stars
Or see it in the drive
Oh, My love is wirtten
In the drive
home
