Andy Northrup - The Long Drive Home Lyrics
I got the sunlight blazing in my eyesAnd I got me a memory and a warningFrom a woman I cannot seem to leave behindCause she's strong and she's true, and giving me the bluesCause she laughs when I tell her I'll be going home to youShe ain't all that big on conversationNot when she's got cravingsThe sweaty weak kneed kind,And I give in to her physical revelationsAnd now she's staying with me as the fuel behind my liesAnd I'm trying to stay clean; I'm trying to stay freeTonight I'll be laying down my head, praying I don't dreamAnd we can't go back to where we wereThough you won't hear me speak of herAnd I can't be the man I was, I know that I can't lieSo all I do is wait for your goodbyeNo I ain't feeling so good this morningThe pain that's been creeping up gets stronger all the timeAnd I know that there won't be too much warningTill you can't pretend anymore that love let's you be blindAnd it's not like there's a plan, it's not like I'm her manShe may know she twists my soul, But she likes how weak I amAnd we can't go back to where we wereThough you won't hear me speak of herAnd I can't be the man I was, It's pointless if I trySo all I do is wait for your goodbyeNo I ain't feeling quite so good this morning,I got the sunlight blazing in my eyes
