On the road alone Drivin' free and clear Heavy foot, heavy heart But I feel You near Objects in the mirror Are farther than they appear Objects in the mirror are not what they Appear I see the sky and the ocean The rise and the fall What my mind regrets My heart, it accepts Pa**ing witness to The crazy costume ball The lowly witness to the beauty of it all When you're not there I turn to stare No matter where you are I drive with you everywhere The pa**enger in my car The pa**enger of my heart It's been 5 years since I've seen ya People ask why I don't grieve you The secrets not plain to see I carry you dear to me I carry you near in the shotgun seat
Right here next to me Ever present right hand girl right here, next to me When you're not there I turn to stare No matter where you are I drive with you everywhere The pa**enger in my car The pa**enger of my heart On the road to somewhere Into the great wide open Where I go, I don't care But I won't give up hopin' With you at my side I'll drive all night to get there With you inside I'll drive all night to the heart of nowhere When you're not there I turn to share No matter where you are I drive with you everywhere The pa**enger in my car The pa**enger of my heart Pa**enger of my heart Shotgun of my heart
