Night Drives - Deaf Havana

Twelve long weeks and I’ve thought myself into this hole

Just like I always do

With your glass green eyes and your deep blue soul

In the morning you say, it won’t mean anything

And it doesn’t break my heart, it just wears it out

And I want to tell you everything but I’m too proud

I guess the truth is I’m as lost as I was before

And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all

When you said that you wouldn’t forget anymore

I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else

Really meant as much to me

Now you’ve been drinking again and I’ve barely slept

Wasting days in a wasted haze with all the promises unkept

I took a trip back to my old hometown

Where it’s harder to remember your name

I searched the streets and the bottles and bars for escape

But nothing has changed and it’s still the same

I guess the truth is I’m as lost as I was before

And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all

When you said that you wouldn’t forget anymore

I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else

Really meant as much to me

Thinking back on those late night drives

And all those lonely August lies

You’ll still be the one to take me home

Cause God knows your eyes are the only ones I’ve ever known

I guess the truth is I’m as lost as I was before

And I swear, I swear that I really believed it all

When you said that you wouldn’t forget anymore

I wrote this song for you to see that nothing else

Really meant as much to me
