Driving in the rain at night
Crying and singing at the top of my lungs
It's been dark for so long
When is daylight? When will it come?
Where did our innocence go?
It's out there somewhere
The wipers creak, the heater’s broken
The gauge’s been reading empty since 1962
You're freezing cold with the window's open
You're out there somewhere
You're out there somewhere
On your way home
Saint Peter checked out
And Saint Luke is long gone
Saint Paul is waiting for his ride,
Watching for the dawn
Where did our innocence go?
It's out there somewhere
The wipers creak, the heater’s broken
The gauge’s been reading empty since 1962
You're freezing cold with the window's open
You're out there somewhere
You're out there somewhere
On your way home
Saint Joe nurses a double whisky
While Saint John shoots a game of pool
You're chain smoking by the jukebox,
and playing the fool
Seems so long ago the sun set in the west
My eyes keep searching for you, over every crest
Driving all night and the rain never ends
But the dawn is coming
The dawn is coming
The wipers creak, the heater’s broken
The gauge’s been reading empty since 1962
You're freezing cold with the window's open
You're out there somewhere
You're out there somewhere
On your way home
