Kelley’s Drive
Lyrics
Sometimes to help me feel alive
I take a ride down Kelley's Drive
Just to see if you were home
And to help me not feel so alone
And I done drank about a fifth of Jack
I'm feelin' pretty low but I'm not turning back
I'd like to call you up, see where you are
But I'll just pass out here in my car
And I’ll never forget July 19th
That evening you and I got back from the beach
And I crashed at your place, you held me so tight
It was one hell of a special night
And I do not know that I could ever move on
But I’ll write about you in some of these songs
I'll continue to love you with every beat in my heart
Till that last beat falls apart
Well, I wrote this for closure, my final goodbye
My last moment to break down and cry
And I know you say that we are friends but it
Does not feel like we've made amends
And I've just got one more thing to say
You're so damn perfect, don't ever change
And I, I'll always have a place for you
I'll always be in love with you
Sometimes to help me feel alive
I take a ride down Kelley's Drive
Just to see if you were home
And to help me not feel so alone
