Bring Your Body

These two hands grip the wheel again
As we cross our fifth state line
Won't get no rest or a lick of sleep
If we're getting there on time
I try and muster up the strength
Just to keep open these eyes
The boys in the back bouncing in their sleep
And I've got you on my mind

Please bring your body here my love
It's taken more than one can bear
And I swear the sun won't rise until
You bring your body here

This life out here is a fickle beast
But it's how I make my dime
And my folks didn't set me up
For a lifetime without trying
Now the miles of smiles is enough alone
To fill up this empty tank
And to feel the room
Moving right along is emotion I can't shake

But bring your body here sweetheart
It's taken more than one can bear
I swear the sun won't rise until
You bring your body here

Well can you believe it?
The way we'd stop and stare
I'd no other reason
But to see you smile again
I must be dreaming
The way the snow falls in your hair
Can you believe it?

I've tried to drink away this pain
I've tried my best to stay high
But the days grow darker
And the nights seem longer
When you're not there by my side
And now we're coming round the bend
Home's just another days drive
All the things unsaid can now fill our heads
As we set this love alive

Then leave our bodies here oh god
They've taken more than they can bear
And I swear the sun won't rise until
You bring your body here
You bring your body here
