Wood Eye from To Keep by Dominique Adams

Longest drive I see you
Turn and smile I know you’ll
stop me if you’ve heard this one before

A man so tired from life
No friends and a wooden eye
Wouldn’t know love knocking at his door

And when he finally comes around
The whole car’s up in laughter now
Love for himself it was the only thing he found

Pulled off on the side of the road
Another mile or so to go
You ask me if I’ve heard this song before

He sings of love and the telephone
One call and you won’t feel so alone
Would you be here now if I did a little more?

And now your song’s right by my side
Seems cruel to me but sits just right
Hang on these words only the rest of my life

Now we’re here only moments from home
It’s getting dark and nearly twice as cold
I ask you what it is you’re crying for

You say it’s fine and I love you my friend
And up to me I would do it all again
that same old smile slowly creeping in

So you keep the key inside
Don’t know where but we just drive
Same open road we’re on it
All through the night

I would do it all
I would do it all again

I would do it all
I would do it all again
