Curled up in the back of the car
Nine years old, you don't know where you are
And your head's on the window, your eyes are just closed
There's a voice in the front and a hush on the road
You're a passenger but your mind is travelling on
Open your eyes and you're nine years older
Hands on the wheel and you're racing on over
To lie with your first love, you can't wait to see her
You borrowed the car and you think you're the driver
But now you're the passenger to your own heart
And it takes you travelling, travelling on
When that morning broke and the sky fell down
It went black as night and the wind blew 'round
And stole your directions, you lost your way home
And you felt like a passenger left by the road
Well, I'll tell you the reason you couldn't get home
'Cause there's nowhere you've been and it's nowhere you're going
Home is only a feeling you get in your mind
From the people you love and you travel beside
You may feel like a passenger but now you're the driver
You've got to go travelling, travelling on
'Cause if you break down, it's a cold, hard shoulder
So fuel up your mind and fire up your heart and drive on
Drive on, drive on
And when your days are darker, put your foot down harder
Drive on, drive on
Well it's nine more years you've been driving now
But tonight you're stumbling through your old town
You met up with a schoolfriend who's still just the same
And you talked all the same shit you talked in those days
And now you're drunk and you're sad for the old times passing you by
Well, there's no rewind so you might as well play
While your time is rolling away
And get back on the road, it's a beautiful day
Pick up all the friends you can find on your way
And if you lose direction they'll be there guiding you on
Guiding you, guiding you on
'Cause we're all going the same way down this long road
Yes, we're all bound the same way down this long, long road
So fuel up your mind and fire up your heart and drive on
(When your days are darker)
Drive on, drive on
And when your days are darker, put your foot down harder
Drive on
Fuel up and drive on
Fuel up and drive on
Drive on
Well its nine more years we've been driving now
And tonight we're gigging back in our old town
And we'll sing to our fans and our friends one last time
Hang on, what was I gonna say?
Before driving into the next verse of our lives
And tonight we'll get smashed for the good times passing us by
Thanks
Okay
It's a bit of a tradition of ours really
But I wondered if you'd be up to hearing some
Acoustic unplugged songs this evening
Okay, we'll give it a go
Its a big place to try it in
But we'll see what happens
This is a song called "November Song"
