Long Drive Home Lyrics
I came 'cause you asked me to, so you
didn't have to drive all alone
Now I did the favour here, not you
Remember, I did the favour here
I've been smiling my best smile
I've been laughing with your friends
doing everything you asked on the way
and I don't know what I've done but we
haven't talked for hours and I'm
waiting for the long drive home
Do you believe in me enough to say so?
She came from another life of mine
Oh she came from another life
A face to the name that dampened days
She's a face and a body and smile
But we hardly said a word
I begin to wish we had as the
headlamps of the cars stream by
And the radio has broke and I'm
lost for things to say as we're
speeding on the long drive home
Looking at you with your eyes firmly fixed on the road
and your mind on an hour ago
And you are looking at me like you think that I started a war
While white lights
So like tracers shoot by
Do you believe in me enough to say so?
didn't have to drive all alone
Now I did the favour here, not you
Remember, I did the favour here
I've been laughing with your friends
doing everything you asked on the way
and I don't know what I've done but we
haven't talked for hours and I'm
waiting for the long drive home
Oh she came from another life
A face to the name that dampened days
She's a face and a body and smile
I begin to wish we had as the
headlamps of the cars stream by
And the radio has broke and I'm
lost for things to say as we're
speeding on the long drive home
and your mind on an hour ago
And you are looking at me like you think that I started a war
While white lights
So like tracers shoot by

Seems fairly straight forward. His partner asked him to accompany her to a function. Whilst there he bumps into an old flame. Current partner gets pissy and he is asking her to believe in him.
@mascam yeh, but he is a bit of an asshole, given that he initially acts like he's no idea what the problem is ('I don't know what I've done'), and then he says he's beginning to wish he had spoken to his ex. It would piss me off, anyway. But then I'vve been just that kind of asshole myself, so props to Adem for being honest enough to put it into song

Amazing song. Love the imagery.
