Lyrics Long Drives - Brian Fallon

I built a room for you
In the back of my mind
Where the ravenous wolves
And the ghosts I know reside

You were amazing
You were always on my mind

We were secrets to keep
And crows buried side by side

But we tasted a kiss
That was sent from below
It was cool in the night
I was old as a stone

In the back of a car
Where they try on your heart
And suddenly show you their teeth

And you say I'm alright
Baby I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives

I keep a letter you wrote
Before the devil came into the picture
It says I got you now
Wrapped around my finger

And into the Mystic
We were blue and outrageous
And every night
I would race the moon and fall for you

But you ache for drug that will never be enough
You're never gonna feel like when it first picked you up
When they drove you around
Gave you poweder and flowers
Until the thrill was gone

But you say I'm alright
Baby I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives

Last night, I remember being seventeen
I met a girl with a taste for the world
And whisky and rights of spring

Spent every night with cassettes that she liked
In a car that I borrowed a lot
I could never get her to believe

But you say I'm alright
Baby I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives
Because I'm alright
Janey I don't mind
I'll get on just fine
On them long long drives
Without you
Without you
Without you
Drives without you
