Lyrics

Drove a Good Man From Home

When I'm lonely at night, I think of all the things you said
and I toast to broken hearts... I push love far away.

Yet leave a trail for wishful thinking, that you might decide to come with me
that you might make it better than the sanctity I've lost.

Drove a good man, I drove a good man, drove a good man from home.

I know it's not your fault, dear, and I know I've made it your problem
although I wouldn't be mad or surprised if you turned and walked away

It's not love that I'm afraid of; it's not your words that I think are lies
I'm not ready for a long-stemmed sort of journey to arise.

Drove a good man, I drove a good man, drove a good man from home.

Yet you don't know how I am just so scared...

From the love of a decent man, I tend to run away and push away;
there's nothing left to consume, I tend to run away

And I meant to say I'm sorry,and I want to give my love to you,
but a little lamb can't win in the hall of a lion's den.

I drove a good man
Well, I drove a good man
Drove a good man from home.
