Driving On
Written by: Tony Castricone & Will Jones (2013)
Miles and miles before me
underneath my wheels
Bottles on the floor
I can’t ignore
are as empty as I feel
Wrinkled up your dashboard picture
but I just can’t let go
I’m lost alone
out on some road
between Maine and Mexico
But I keep driving on
Driving west into the sunset
Today’s like us, it’s at an end
Driving east, desperate for a new dawn
Driving north, it’s getting cold
without yesterday’s hand to hold
But what’s in my rearview is gone
so I just keep driving on
Yellow lines fly by me
Hypnotize my mind
My heart’s so heavy
that every red Chevy
Malibu has got you inside
Lonely as the moon above me
but I’m not alone
’cause though we’re through
that ghost of you
tempts me to pick up the phone
But I keep driving on
Chorus
I could turn around like I’ve done before
But I’ve been down that road
and I won’t go there anymore
