Boy - Drive Darling lyrics

rate me

You close the door and start the motor

I roll the window down

I raise my hand and wave goodbye

To neighborhood queens and clowns and

Children in the front yards

They hide and seek and laugh

I can almost hear you thinking

How could these days go by so fast

And the rear view could picture

What we leave behind?

Drive darling, drive darling,

Drive darling, drive darling, drive darling, drive.

A silent conversation

No words cause there's no need

We let the tapes mix up the years

And press repeat and press repeat

The trunk is filled with records

And books and tears and clothes

I'm smiling on the surface

I'm scared as hell below

And the rear view could picture

What we leave behind

Drive darling, drive darling,

Drive darling, drive darling, drive

Good morning freedom

Good night lullabies

Drive darling, drive darling,

Drive darling, drive darling, drive

(2x)

Once, once that we arrive

The hardest of goodbyes

If you will dry my eyes

Somehow you're always by my side

The one who holds my kite

And watches over all my flights

And the rear view could picture

What we leave behind

Drive darling, drive darling,

Drive darling, drive darling, drive
