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
