Lyrics
The night's not absent of light
It's only absent of what we see
She's driving to Missouri
And she's listening
Where did you go
Can't you come on back
Cause it's been a while now and I'm too alone
And I could really use the help
Where did you go
We are all overwhelmed
We are all just chasing thoughts
I turn these cards for people and tell them
"No they're never gone"
Where did they go
Can't they come on back
I had things I meant to say and can they hear me talk
this way
Time's bitch what about that
Where did they go
Something to ease your mind
Maybe just baby steps
I'm freaking out over the fire alarm
And I could really use the help
Where did you go
Where did you go
I was helping this lady down the steps of CVS
Maybe you could find your way back to feeling like yourself
Where did you go
Can't you come on back
If you get out of your head
I'll get out of mine
What could be wrong about that
Where did you go
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
The night's not absent of light
It's only absent of what we see
Wouldn't you rather be here tonight
Instead of over there without me
Where did you go
She's driving
Where did you go
She's driving
Where did you go
She's driving
Where did you go
She's driving
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
She's driving
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
She's driving
And she's listening
