lyrics

wild skies tonight
this coffee i poured is no friend of mine
before i leave i'd like to steal a kiss goodbye
and if this night goes like they always seem to
then we won't have the time
you know we never do

i shoulda known
that your house could not be a home

i'm hopelessly lost in steelyards
waiting on your okay to head over
the call that never seems to come
when your ex and your son hang out for too long

you take to the skies
i take to the sea
the highways are long in between
but you know i need to be lost on the run out on the streets
and if our love must end like all the rest
let this aimless drive lead me right to my last chance

i shoulda known
not all roads lead home

i'm hopelessly lost in steelyards
waiting on your okay to head over
the call that never seems to come
when your problems steal all your attention

you say you appreciate all the little things i do
but do you know the depth of my patience with you
yea i go awol
drive for days to be with you
i hide under the bed
i climb out the window out of view

i shoulda known
the roads my only home

i'm hopelessly lost in this strange world
my ships leaving port
no family of my own
i'm hopelessly in love at your front door
always beckoned back to the light of your home
