Dragonfly

Driving down the highway in the pouring rain

Trying not to pull a u-ey and drive back your way

I know that I could stay

Go to work in the morning

Go home at night

Run around in circles till I get it right

But last time I settled down I hit the floor

Dragonfly, I left you behind

And the road's too long to change my mind

I just can't crawl no more

When I can stand

But the Devil in the deep blue sea

Has got me swimming back to you in Oakland

There's a coal miner's daughter

With a cast iron chain

She spins straw into gold every day

For a nickel, and the chance to change her name

Dragonfly, I left you behind

And the road's too long to change my mind

I just can't crawl no more

When I can stand

But the Devil in the deep blue sea

Has got me swimming back to you in Oakland

There's a bridge that connects two pieces of land

When you send me off again

And turn your lamp down low

As I drive across the bridge

The sea is white

The mist is the sea and the sea is the sky

All I see is the light of your Skyline

Dragonfly, I left you behind

And the road's too long to change my mind

I just can't crawl no more

When I can stand

But the Devil in the deep blue sea

Has got me swimming back to you in Oakland
