Drive Him Home
Anna Nalick
[Intro] [Verse 1] We were strangers side by side My car was big and I knew he needed a ride A man of two truths trained to shout So I fell in love with him on both sides of his mouth And I said Amen amen amen amen [Chorus] Something told me not to run Said I’ be the one I’ be the one I’ be the one I’d be the one to drive him home [Verse 2] He feared he’d fall Didn’t know Said I was everything that he’d been dreaming of He crawled inside me to my core And pointed north to stars I’d never seen before And I said Amen amen amen amen [Chorus] Something told me not to run Said I’ be the one I’ be the one I’ be the one To touch him like he was my own And I’ drive him home I’ drive him home I’ drive him home I’d be the one to drive him [Verse 3] I don’t want to have him just to hold I want a ring of fire he’s got a ring of gold But he don’t want to have me just to hold He wants a ring of fire I want his word of gold [Bridge] And I won’t mind laying with fire When we’re running up and up we can unfold I would ride with him all life long I wouldn’t share him for a story or a song His eyes pled "don’t leave" But I knew best Even though it burns like battery acid in my chest [Chorus] Something told me I should run Said I’ be the one I’ be the one I’ be the one To love him more than my need to own And I’ drive him home I’ drive him home I’ drive him home I won’t be raining like a stone No they won’t know I drove him home I drove him home But if someday my bird is flown If my light’s still on my window’s drawn and I’m alone [Outro] I’ll be the one I’ll be the one I’ll be the one To drive him home
