… Night Driver (lyrics) …
Night Driver.
The first song I wrote for the album that has become “Bits”. It is a simple song that encompasses the experience of driving … at night.
Night Driver
Grey outlines trace the top of the town
We watch this monochrome world begin
Let’s escape and look at stars and planes for an hour
Hit the reset, do it over againDid you get this message?
I’m not giving this whole world over to you
Can’t stop
Can’t regret this
Every person’s limited
Every picture’s holding the truthThere’s a quiet that rises up from the lines
Sets a rhythm so subtle yet drawing us in
Let’s follow each street one at a time
Hit the reset, do it over againDid you get this message?
I’m not giving this whole world over to you
Can’t stop
Can’t regret this
Every person’s limited
Every picture’s holding the truthEven with you I ride silent
And as it all comes crashing out
Delivering me into the evening nowDid you get this message?
I’m not giving this whole world over to you
Can’t stop
Can’t regret this
Every person’s limited
Every picture’s holding the truthDid you delete this message?
I have given this whole world over to you
I can’t stop
Delete
This tension
That’s it were pulling overJust let me drive
And if we don’t stop traveling
We’ll make good time in the miles ahead
And though we can’t see the landscape
It’s no different
It’s always out aheadJust let me drive
