the pennsylvania song

We drove four hours in the wrong direction
Almost got hit by a deer
I wonder how old that graveyard is
There's more of the dead than the living out here
Couldn't get gas so we got Italian food
The weather outside matched our moods
I always think about a kid I knew from school
Who lost his mom in a lightning storm
He would say when thunder roars stay indoors
Well I could stay with you in here some more
Maybe another hour or another four

Cause' the only place we have to go tonight is back home
And home has always had four walls
With a couch and a bed and sometimes a dog
But it's starting to look more like a silhouette
With arms and legs and a heart and a head
That lies on me through the night
And keeps me awake from the passenger side
When I drive us four hours in the wrong direction
When I drive us four hours in the wrong direction

And I thought I knew what love looked like
But I think I see it better now
It's not a mountain top but solid ground
With grass beneath flowers around
With an open sky and an endless road
Where you could keep driving and never know
You're driving four hours in the wrong direction
You're driving four hours in the wrong direction
You're driving four hours in the wrong direction
But it doesn't matter because you're already home
