His car sits where he parked it
|
No more clicks on the clock
|
Clean and neat as he kept it
|
Now he's gone, gone, gone
|
|
I sit in the driver's seat
|
Peer out over the wheel
|
Like a kid playing race cars on my own
|
|
In the darkness, in the dark
|
In the darkness, I can feel my heart
|
|
A car smells like its owner
|
An old car seems almost alive
|
Can he hear me think this?
|
He taught me to drive
|
|
He was always so patient
|
I stalled and I stalled it again
|
Now I try turning it over
|
Not even a spark
|
|
In the darkness, in the dark
|
In the darkness, I can feel your heart
|
|
Now we stand in the garden
|
We talk, and we toast you and laugh
|
Your car sits cold in the garage
|
In the dark
|
|
In the darkness I can feel our heart
|
|
We are, we are
|
We are the wind that bends the knees of old trees
|
Old dreams
|
We are, we are
|
We are here, we're healing
|
Oh, heavy steps, heavy steps
|
Suddenly lead into the light
|
|

In The Dark
