Sunset Drives

Keep me close tonight, I got a thing get to
And you know I won't forget you
Now, baby, what they say sounds right
(Got a lot to get to, got to go)
I got a million faces and my sleeve is full of aces
(And if I get off early, I'll let you know)
And I got nothing to lose
(We can take the fast lane or let it flow)
I'll just hope for something better
Oh, it's gotta be the sweater weather
And there's nothing left to prove
I'm just bad news altogether
Oh, it's gotta be the sweater weather

Why can't I pay for you?
(Even though I try harder)
So much easier than sin
(Things just don't get better)
Another primal urge, another empty day
To keep the pale, lonely nights at bay

Letters addressed to you
(Got a lot to get to, got to go)
But I'll never send them through
(And if I get off early, I'll let you know)
And I guess you always knew
(We can take the fast lane or let it flow)
That I never would come through

Let's use our nomenclature
Maybe describe our nature
A better term for all the things
That you have whispered to me
Bite my ear, I'll bite my tongue

I'll weigh you down if I'm around
I will never be free from these ghosts
You're why, it seems, that my heart still bleeds
And that's what hurts the most

Why can't I pay for you?
(Even though I try harder)
So much easier than sin
(I can't change the way I am for you)
Another primal urge
Another Empty day
To keep the pale, lonely nights at bay

You're all I got baby
You make me feel complete
If only you could see
There's nothing underneath

You're all I ever need
You make me feel complete
If only you could see
There's something underneath
