It's a long car ride on the passenger side
With the late winter sun warm on your face
You don't know quite when you'll arrive
But you'll know when you feel its grace
Everything has come to the beginning
The body still, the mind still spinning
The dance confounded by the dancer
The question hidden by the answer
I know just how you feel
it's like--, it's like--, it's like--
Don't fret, I'll take the wheel
I'll drive, I'll ride beside you
It's a long white road with the radio low
It's a tough time, but for now it feels alright
Time stretched out, for now it moves slow
The horizon is still in sight
The seas back up against the oceans
And all at rest and all in motion
All meaning spent, the words all spoken
My love a wilderness unbroken
I don't know how you feel
It's not like, it's not like, it's not like
Don't fret, I'll take the wheel
I'll drive I'll ride I'll drive alright I'll drive I'll ride beside you.
