David Burns - Drove By Your House

I drove by your house today, but I didn't stop and stay
Your mother would invite me in, you'd prefer I leave but wouldn't say
Your old house looks the same, not a single brick has changed
A time capsule of our days, memories locked in weathered yellow paint
Someday I will turn in your driveway, get out of my car and say hi
Someday I will stop in for coffee and let you know that you were right
Someday I will finally apologize, but today I drove by
I will always think of you when I'm on 422
The way the timbers hide the clouds, the autumn colors, scenic routes and views
I know it's been too long, and I know that you are strong
But you deserve much better than a drawer of unsent letters and a song
Someday I will turn in your driveway, get out of my car and say hi
Someday I will stop in for coffee and let you know that you were right
Someday I will finally apologize, but today I drove by
Ooh, why'd we drift apart?
Ooh, how'd we get this far?
Someday I will finally come over and give you some closure this time
Someday I will say all the words that I know you deserved in our fights
Someday I will change my direction and mind, but today I drove by
