Temecula Sunrise

3:35, six hours into this drive
This cup of cold coffee is barely keeping me alive
And thinking about you is all that I can do tonight

Tired eyes
Please see this through
I'm staying awake just to sleep with you

If I'm not there when you awake
Please don't be scared
Make no mistake
I'll be home soon to sleep with you
Driving down these endless roads
My compass is your heart that guides me home

5:35, eight hours into this drive
LA brake lights wink at me like bloodshot eyes
80 miles still left to go
80 miles 'til I'm in bed with you tonight

Tired eyes
Please see this through
I'm staying awake just to sleep with you

If I'm not there when you awake
Please don't be scared
Make no mistake
I'll be home soon to sleep with you
Driving down these endless roads
My compass is your heart that guides me home

Temecula sunrise
Flooding these half-closed eyes
My windshield's cemetery
Smeared across a framed orange sky
I crack a yellow smile
Next exit, three more miles
50,840 feet 'til I'm in bed with you

If I'm not there when you awake
Please don't be scared
Make no mistake
I'll be home soon to sleep with you

If I'm not there when you awake
Please don't be scared
Make no mistake
I'll be home soon to sleep with you
Driving down these endless roads
My compass is your heart that guides me home
That guides me home
