Story Behind The Song
Song was written after this kind of feeling was triggered in me. Still a little too near to want to really go into. Hopefully the song will hit home for those who have been there. They will hopefully understand.
Song Description
I tried to keep an optimistic feel to a song that can really be taken as a sad story. Sometimes when a person is in love with someone who does not love them back, they are blind to the fact and are still extremely optimistic about a future for that relationship. Blinded by love as they might say. This is what I was going for.

Lyrics
Let you Drive
I was just thinking of a place
And I?d like to see you there
Shouldn?t wait for you to show
This one sided love that I have made in my head
So I pretend for a while
Sometimes it?s enough
And sometimes it?s true, I need
Giving was never what you do
Best so I?ll just pass the time
Lot of singing in my head
Scatters thoughts of
Where you are and what I?m waiting
For and I don?t understand it
Time opens up wide to receive me
All I can do is just let you lie
When I hang on every little thing you crack a little smile
You?ve got a way of keeping me at bay forever and a while
All I can do is just let you drive
I catch a little thought over here on the passenger side
You can take me anywhere I don?t care if it?s a million miles away from here
So what was I thinking I was getting by with sweeter silence
Anyone could have warned me off you, if I saw you pass me onto
Another hand lies kept my patience and keeps me waiting at a losing table
Another day seems to drag along and keep me on this reckless song
All I can do is just let you lie
When I hang on every little thing you crack a little smile
You?ve got a way of keeping me at bay forever and a while
All I can do is just let you drive
I catch a little thought over here on the passenger side
You can take me anywhere I don?t care if it?s a million miles
All I can do is just let you lie
When I hang on every little thing you crack a little smile
You?ve got a way of keeping me at bay forever and a while
All I can do is just let you drive
I catch a little thought over here on the passenger side
You can take me anywhere I don?t care if it?s a million miles away from here
