your name - joe jenneman lyrics
[verse 1]
when she told me where she wants to be
by the time the clock hits twenty-five
i had to roll my neck and rub my eyes
cause the picture that she painted
is the same one that’s engrained in
the truest part of my mind
[chorus]
i took the long way home tonight
i thought the rubber on the pavement
might tell me what the day meant
these moments don’t add up
do they darlin’
i swear that i need you
but the city is callin’
and while i know there’s gold
in california to claim
i don’t wanna whisper a word
except for your name
[verse 2]
if i had the ability
to compromise ident-ty
i’d put on a h-ll of a disguise
i’d lie and say i’m doing grand
that your just a girl and i’m just a man
i’d lie and say i’m just tryin’ you on for size
but you can tell
by the length of my face
i ain’t that sort of fellow
and this ain’t that sort of case
cause i
wish that i could just not try
but instead i drive and drive and drive and drive
[chorus]
i took the long way home tonight
i thought the rubber on the pavement
might tell me what the day meant
these moments don’t add up
do they darlin’
i swear that i need you
but the city is callin’
and while i know there’s gold
in california to claim
i don’t wanna whisper a word
except for your name
[bridge]
rings out in my head
like a shotgun blast
your mattress grew stiff
as we did the math
countin’ miles and moments
now my emotions are showin’
but i don’t care, i don’t care
[chorus]
i took the long way home tonight
i thought the rubber on the pavement
might tell me what the day meant
these moments don’t add up
do they darlin’
i swear that i need you
but the city is callin’
and while i know there’s gold
in california to claim
i don’t wanna whisper a word
except for your name
