It's a sad sad drive on a dark and lonely night
It's a sad sad drive when only one of us still has hope in his eyes

Wait. I drive to feel your hug
Hope. That's just another drug
Trying to kill the pain like aspirin
Make me feel better

Now distance is a funny thing
Romance is just a touch away
You can touch me with your hands or in your letters

As soon as you went away I remember the things I forgot to say
As soon as you went away I remembered

It's only because I'm lonely that I imagine you next to me
It's only because I'm lonely. I envision you
I can picture you and feel your breath on my neck

Dusting into Panama City
I race down to Route 98
Trying to get to your place before the sunrise
Before the buzz dies in my eyes

Snuck out to the beach where I learned the lessons that you'd teach
You never taught me the final lesson of how to lose you till now

As soon as you went away I remember the things I forgot to say
As soon as you went away I remembered

Now it's a sad sad drive on a dark and lonely night
I remember so clearly when you rode with me on this ride
And all the struggles and the laughs I just refused and put them all in the past
It's a sad sad drive when only one of us still has hope in his eyes
