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
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
And when we arrive The hardest of goodbys You will dry my eyes Somehow you're always by my side The one who holds my kite And watches over all my flights
Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive
Good morning freedom Good night lullabies Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive
Drive darling, drive darling, Drive darling, drive darling, drive
