Don't try to drive
Don't try to drive tonight
Pressures dropping I was right
Heavy shiver in the air
I don't know why I'm laughing
You know the bridges freeze first?
And then the gin in your purse
And then the swimming pool where you work
All from the crash
All from the thunder crash
That made you drop your water glass
Which made us stoop to clean it up
Which put your mouth right near mine
I'm omnipotent now
I hear your thinking and wow
It's not all daisies and paisleys anyhow
This semiprecious lighting is the lighting from my dream
These shadows of you
Look alive
Don't drive home tonight
Maybe I do care
If it hurts if it hurts if it hurts
If it really hurts
Sleep while you can
Sleep while you can don't wake
Once things change they never change
It's like drawing on your walls
Like haircuts for your girl dolls
You know the carpet will dry
And then the tear in your eye
And then the riverbed under breathing skies
This semiprecious lighting is the lighting from my dream
This feeling you hold
Is a high
Don't drive home tonight
Maybe I do care
If it hurts if it hurts if it hurts if it really hurts
