He drove from here to nowhere
On a road he didn't want to know
He was keeping something secret
Not sure why but he knew he had to go
Came by to see me
In good heart as I recall
Talked about the old days
Picking our way through it all
It was great to see him
Laughing and sharing his fears
Making light of the ups and downs
Picking our way through the tears
He drove from here to nowhere
On a road he didn't want to know
He was keeping something secret
Not sure why but he knew he had to go
Next day it was over
Never stayed anywhere long
Like a fire in a wild wind
Picking his road, right or wrong
He drove from here to nowhere
On a road he didn't want to know
He was keeping something secret
Not sure why but he knew he had to go
