Drive Him Home

We were strangers
 Side-by-side
 My car was big
 And I knew he needed a ride
 A man of two truths
 Ashamed to shout
 So I fell in love with him
 On both sides of his mouth
 And I said
 Amen Amen Amen Amen
 Something
 Told me not to run
 Said I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 I'd be the one to drive him home
 He feared he'd
 Fallen in love
 Said I was everything
 That he'd been dreaming of
 He crawled inside me
 To my core
 And pointed north
 To stars I'd never seen before
 And I said
 Amen Amen Amen Amen
 Something
 Told me not to run
 Said I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 To touch him
 Like he was my own
 And I'd drive him home
 I'd drive him home
 I'd drive him home
 I'd be the one to drive him
 I don't wanna have him
 Just to hold
 I want a ring of fire
 He's got a ring of gold
 But he don't wanna have me
 Just to hold
 He wants a ring of fire
 I want his word of gold
 And I won't mind
 Playing with fire
 When we're on an up and up
 We can uphold
 I would ride with him
 All life long
 But I wouldn't share it
 For a story or a song
 His eyes pled "don't leave"
 But I knew best
 And even though it burns
 Like battery acid in my chest
 Something
 Told me I should run
 Said I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 I'd be the one
 To love him
 More than my need to own
 And I'd drive him home
 I'd drive him home
 I'd drive him home
 I won't be
 Waiting like a stone
 No they won't know
 I drove him home
 I drove him home
 But if someday
 My bird has flown
 If my light's still on
 My windows drawn
 And I'm alone
 I'll be the one
 I'll be the one
 I'll be the one to drive him home
