[Intro] Mmm, yeah Oh, drive me home again [Verse 1] You came in late with that same old face Said the day went long and the bills got made You kicked off your boots by the kitchen door Didn’t say much, just stared at the floor I poured two drinks and I let you be ’Cause I know that look, and it looks like me We’ve been good at quiet, bad at the truth And this old house keeps count of what we lose [Pre-Chorus] There’s a little less laughter in the rooms we share A little more distance sitting in the air I don’t know when we got this far gone But I still know your hand in the dark so strong [Chorus] So drive me home again, drive me home again Take me back to the place where we still fit in If this road ends slow, let it end with grace Put that old love song back on the same old place We ain’t young, we ain’t free, but we still try So drive me home again tonight [Verse 2] You said we changed, and I said we did Like two worn shoes and a half-shut lid You said we used to laugh at nothing at all Now we talk in pieces in the after-supper hall I said maybe time just does what it does Maybe hard years get a little hard on us Then you looked at me with those tired blue eyes And I saw the girl I married still alive [Pre-Chorus] There’s a little less fire, but it isn’t gone Just buried under what we’ve carried on I don’t need perfect, I just need true I’d rather fight for us than start brand new [Chorus] So drive me home again, drive me home again Take me back to the place where we still fit in If this road ends slow, let it end with grace Put that old love song back on the same old place We ain’t young, we ain’t free, but we still try So drive me home again tonight [Bridge] Maybe love ain’t always bright Maybe it’s a porch light burning through the night Maybe it’s two hard heads and a soft place to land A little mercy in a calloused hand And if we’re honest, there’s still a flame Not the kind that burns, but the kind that stays [Final Chorus] So drive me home again, drive me home again Take me back to the place where we still fit in If this road ends slow, let it end with grace Put that old love song back on the same old place We ain’t young, we ain’t free, but we still try So drive me home again tonight Yeah, drive me home again Drive me home again tonight [Outro] Mmm, yeah Drive me home again Tonight
