I am far from home
She said in passing in my car
Last night's liquor's worn off
And it leaves me wanting more
Get my kicks on the motorway
Carving geometric lines
Smothered by the radio waves
Wishing that I had tried
To fit in here
But I played dead for so damn long
Woke up and the world had moved on
But when tomorrow comes
I want to wake on the other side
Where I can watch the cars drive by
I wanted to, I wanted to
I wanted to and I don't know why
But I'm inclined to bide my time
Leave this all behind
Who cares for that
I did, I did one time
I'm inclined to bide my time
Leave this all behind
Who cares for that
I did, I did one time
I'm the caretaker here
Just a polished veneer
I swear I've been asleep for years
And it's never seemed so clear
That I locked it inside the drawer
Aside a box that I once bought
From a man who seemed so sure
Is anybody ever sure
And that's the man I fear
The black dog behind the door
And I know these hands no more
Than the litter on the floor
Still alive behind the wheel
And I just watch the world go by
I wanted you, I wanted you
I wanted you and I don't know why
But I'm inclined to bide my time
Leave this all behind
Who cares for that
I did, I did one time
I'm inclined to bide my time
Leave this all behind
Who cares for that
I did, I did one time
