We always passed the Cogen plant at night The towers and tanks all lit up like Christmas As we crossed the still black water into Delaware The blinking red sign said welcome, three dollars, pass with care You were always asleep Even when the car ground into second And flooded with the smell of foggy river air I know where you are I know where you are And I wish that I could Wish for you to Come back home again We hit the stretch south of Rehoboth The Atlantic Ocean came into sight There was nothing on the radio but old Joni Mitchell And I said, 'lean your seat back, just close your eyes, and I'll drive' I'll bring you home and carry your shit to the house How else can I say this? I never really tried I was always afraid that the world would end in ice I know where you are I know where you are And I wish that I could Wish for you to Come back home again We were careless and mistaken To drive so far at night There's so much we never could see past the headlights We could have passed through the beautiful country and never even known it We could have passed through the beautiful country and never even known it I know where you are I know where you are And I wish that I could Wish for you to Come back home again
