Drive Home

(mike grutka)
Michael D Grutka
Drove home the day my mom passed away. wrote 2 songs. this was the first.

it was such a beautiful day for a long drive.
Asking about heaven
is it what you thought you'd find
when you left here
you closed your eyes
did you float up away
to a place you call home

now i'm driving home and i'll
find a way to hold on
i just keep driving towards the light
don't fade away

Days when I'm younger
i was talking to you
sitting on the table waiting for the answers of my life
I'm still left here waiting

now i'm driving home and i'll
find a way to hold on
i just keep driving towards the light
that fades away

what is life
is it what you left behind
all i know is I miss you all the same

all these times
you and i were here
now i long to hold all the things that fade a way

thinking bout the times to come
the places that i hope to find
now i know that the roads too long
the roads too short
to find you left me
left me here
