Driveway - Dan Layus

It’s 5 o’clock and the rain won’t stop

And I feel like a prisoner in my own car

She’s leaning on the sink, trying not to think

Wondering how much longer we can fake this thing

We’re both giving more than we both get

This has been so hard, we don’t want to give up yet

You’re in there, and I’m out here

Can’t bear to leave, can’t stand to stay

So I’m just sitting here, parked in the driveway

Used to be you and me

Have a date in the front, kid sleeping in the backseat

This driveway was an open road

Didn’t think at the start this is where it was gonna go

We’re both giving more than we both get

This has been so hard, we don’t want to give up yet

You’re in there, and I’m out here

Can’t bear to leave, can’t stand to stay

So I’m just sitting here, parked in the driveway

The way things went, it was a long slow death

Put ourselves in the corner time and time again

It’s hard to say if it’s too late

But you’d give up or I drove away

Can’t bear to leave, can’t stand to stay

So I’m just sitting here, parked in the driveway

This house was a home a long time ago

We don’t want to miss it, but I think we both know

We’re both giving more than we both get

This has been so hard, we don’t want to give up yet

You’re in there, honey I’m out here

Can’t bear to leave, can’t stand to stay

So I’m just sitting here, parked in the driveway
