Long Drives

歌詞

I built a room for you in the back of my mind Where the ravenous wolves and the ghosts I know reside You were amazing, you were always on my mind We were secrets to keep, crows buried side-by-side But we tasted a kiss that was sent from below It was cool in the night, I was old as a stone In the back of a car where they try on your heart And suddenly show you their teeth But you say, "I’m alright Baby, I don’t mind I’ll get on just fine On them long, long drives" I keep a letter you wrote before the devil came in the picture Says, "I've got you now, wrapped around my finger" And into the mystic, we were blue and outrageous And every night, I would race the moon and fall for you But you ache for a drug a that'll never be enough And never gonna feel like when it first picked you up When they drove you around, bought you powder and flowers Until the thrill was gone And you said, "I’m alright Baby, I don’t mind I’ll get on just fine On them long, long drives" Last night I remembered being seventeen I met a girl with a taste for the world and whiskey and Rites of Spring Spent every night with cassettes that she liked In a car that I borrowed a lot I could never get her to believe But you say, "I’m alright Baby, I don’t mind I’ll get on just fine On them long, long drives" Because I'm alright Janey, I don't mind I'll get on just fine On them long, long drives without you Without you Without you Drives without you
