Lyrics
Oh yes I'm driving down this lonely lonely road
Yeah and it's bustling with everyone you'd know
Out on the weekend
With street lights a fiery glow
And the night a promised land
For pilgrims in party hats
Oh yes I'm driving down this lonely lonely road
I know that you're out there talking the talk I know
Falling down laughing
While your friends go count out the beat
To the freedom of the street
While I'm a guy you used to know
I feel like an alien from yesterday
Looking through the glass as the people play
Craving for your scent somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
Why don't you call me
I've left you agony on your phone
Yeah my heart has been ripped from its home
Oh Baby come to me
