lyrics

Tonight we drive down the dusty roads of anywhere
The desert dawn is busting out and the fever wind is blowing your hair
We kept our secrets long enough, but the situations never clear
We'll drive a little further down and hope that the Answers come on here

So whatever you thought you thinked it was
I couldn't believe it when i saw
That angels could drink 3 shots of gin
Then a shot of whiskey and fly again

I tossed you back a sweater and you put it on
We've both said nothing since 100 miles back when you We were drunk

Kisses that i never took
Were never the problems, just the looks
That you gave me when a lady gave came by asking me To sing her a lullaby
Keeping things at a different pace
I thought i could fix things but in my haste
I ruined our love and a little girls name
I'm sorry i promised anything...

The sands of time pay no mind to a precedent
What you said maybe right but I don't think that you really meant it

You said it once, and now I'll say it again
Not everyone's happy with a picket fence
This hunk of junk that drives me by
Takes me home somewhere down the line
I don't need all these insecurities
That bind a man and makes soul bleed
This hunk of junk that drives us by
Will get us down the sands of time
