The Drive Home
Words and Music By: Randy Bacon

the hall lights reflect
that she stayed up again
to try and reach me
and worry
its not that worry
is a problem
its just that 16 comes once in my life

salvation comes but once a year
or so she said
and now you're waiting here for sorrys
that i just spent

and i lied to get away
to meet her at the place
and latter risk my life
on the drive home
and the drive home would take
a half an hour away
from sleeping off mistakes
and hurting

salvation comes but once a year
or so she said
and now you're waiting here for sorrys
that i just spent

i could be every man you want me to be
but history says it doesn't matter
and i wait every day
to see her face
at my door
