lyrics

About this time last year, I guess
Is when it all when up in flames
Morning was a long way off
And night weren't feeling all that soft

From the church up on the corner
The bell rang, the vultures called
It's a long drive from the night shift
Through wind that bears Heaven's kiss

I've been driving with the Devil
In the passenger seat
He tells me I'm not that tired
And I pretend he's not a liar

I try my best
To keep my eyes on the road
No need to guess
Where I'm supposed to go

//I hope you've been getting my letters from the road
I hope you've been reading them, I hope you know//

I miss you, but I'm okay, and the food here is bad
Been sleeping on the front seat
Wearing my socks three deep

I often imagine that I'm back home, on the couch, by the fire
With you in my arms
And the world can't do us no harm

//I hope you've been getting my letters from the road
I hope you've been reading them, I hope you know//

That I'm coming home
I promise I'll be there before long
I'll have you know that I ain't gonna sleep
Till the road runs out and I'm at your feet

Greyest dawn I've ever seen
Is breaking over me
Still a few miles left to go
Holding on, I hold on to hope

//I hope you've been getting my letters from the road
I hope you've been reading them, I hope you know that I miss you//

about

Grant Andrews Waterloo, Ontario

I'm widely acknowledged as being mostly unknown. These days I mostly run rock and roll with JEWELTONES. This is just me working out my egomania and narcissism.

Enjoy!
