Whole Way Home - Donovan Woods

It was your friends

And their husbands

At some dinner party thing

You were drinking

So I was driving

Things seemed fine when

We said goodnight

We pulled on the highway

Whole city shining

On just-rained-on pavement

Like some still-life painting

And we rolled on in silence

Thing’s felt alright then

The quiet went on a little too long

The whole way home

You looked out the window

I still don’t know

What I did wrong

So I thought about

The whole evening

Did I say something?

Was I distant?

Did you ask me a question?

Did I not listen?

I didn’t lie when you asked me if I wanted to leave

If you wanted to stay you could’ve said something

Did I not talk enough?

Did I laugh too loud?

Was I supposed to do something?

I forgot about?

And we pulled on the highway

Whole city shining

On just rained-on pavement

Like some still-life painting

And we rolled on in silence

Thing’s felt alright then

The quiet went on a little too long

The whole way home

You looked out the window

I still don’t know

What I did wrong

The whole way home

The whole way home
