Manny McGuffin - Another Song About Driving Home

from Three's Company by The Old Distillery Songwriter's Collective

/

lyrics

Frost on the windshield
Sun spun like a pinwheel
Small change on the periphery
Takes center stage in the early winter pageantry

Days are getting shorter
The equinox approaches, everything's in order
Driving back to my home town
It's a periodic pilgrimage that there's no getting around

When I sit back and take stock
I'm feeling lucky for the things that I've got
I never knew I needed a blank space
Until that nimbus mob obscured your face
Another song about driving home
Sometimes it's easier to go it alone
When I write it down and say it out loud
I can almost hear my brother singing

Cruise past the old place
Garden's gone, the bricks have been replaced
The grade school's converted to a retirement community
That's not a metaphor, but man it's seems like it ought to be

New wing on the high school
Some little so and so stiffed me at the drive through
Part of me still wants to be 18 and cruising
Another part of me wonders what my cats are doing

Another song about driving home
No one really wants to be alone
When I write it down and say it out loud
I can almost hear my brother singing
