Lyrics

Faux Suede Drifter

[Verse 1]

Wake up wanting but don't know what

Night rider waiting

How can you still be on my mind?

The truth is overrated too

[Chorus]

Something about the way you held me tonight

Something about the way you kiss

No one can be blamed

We're the light arrived

Something we can't heal this time

[Verse 2]

Faux suede drifter, you never moved

Silence eroded

Touching you with a loaded gun

The eyes follow eyes and assume

[Non-Lyrical Chorus]
