Counterpart Songtext

von Jason Webley

I can't remember the face of my wife
But from halfway around the world I can smell her hair
And every stranger that brushes past becomes the love of my life
But I can't betray her, her arms are everywhere

She said don't just touch, I want you to crawl inside
As she backed out the door with both hands on my gun
Well, I never knew my father, so I guess I don't expect
I will ever meet my son

Now I surrender
I'll come blind to her side
I guess I'll spend the evening
In the passenger chair

Yes, I've studied the scriptures, the guidebooks and maps
Oh I drank, I drank more from habit than thirst
Somehow I never noticed that you only touch your shadow
When your feet are on the earth

And I can't remember if I'm still on the train
But I'll just trust the driver
I just trust the driver, I just trust the driver
Her arms are everywhere

Please don't tell me where we're going
Just drive, just drive
Please don't tell me where we're going
I like to be surprised
