Steady on the Road to You
Style: Jazz standard

[Verse 1]
Rain comes sideways on the glass
I keep driving, keep my eyes ahead
Every mile just makes me miss you
Every light says turn instead

[Pre-chorus]
Amber lamps keep flashing past
Nothing steady but this feeling
I could drive till morning light

[Chorus]
Nansi, you're the reason I keep going
Down these roads that never end
Nansi, nothing's chancy when I'm near you
You're the truest kind of friend

[Verse 2]
I count the lamps to count the miles
You said wait up, don't you dare sleep
Windscreen wipers keep on beating
That's the only time I keep

[Chorus]
Nansi, you're the reason I keep going
Down these roads that never end
Nansi, nothing's chancy when I'm near you
You're the truest kind of friend

[Bridge]
No map could get me there faster
Than the thought of your front door
You make the dark feel like nothing
I don't need the stars anymore

[Chorus]
Nansi, you're the reason I keep going
Down these roads that never end
Nansi, nothing's chancy when I'm near you
You're the truest kind of friend

[Outro]
Rain still comes down sideways
But I'm nearly, nearly home
