Gravel Drive - John Cale

You’re going away again

It’s almost as if you never came

I’m tired and helpless

and midnight’s here

leave me something

something that will make me smile

Someone is calling from the den

«when does survivor come on»

I hear the car door slamming

footsteps on the gravel drive

take me with you

take me away

leave me a piece of your smile

journeys of a lifetime

leaving from here

travelling the edges

like footsteps on a gravel drive
