Codriver Lyric Video

Track 1 from the album Bifurcate by The War Yaks.

The sun upon the treetops in your eyes,
it flickers on, but you are oblivious. You
don’t see me staring at you as you drive.
Just carry on, I love the view.

I promised I would never take for granted
a single hour of our life you’ve enchanted.
It’s trivial and true.

The snow is bearing down upon the road.
The wheels spin out, a dab of oppo and
you right the course — my heart is in my throat.
We made it through. You grab my hand,

and as we round the corners I’ll be skittish,
but I’ll be with you to the flying finish.
I promised I would never take for granted
a single hour of our life you’ve enchanted.
It’s trivial and true.

I don’t know where I’d be without you now.
Maybe I’d have found a way to continue on, but how?
How would I get off the ground?
How would I withstand the doubt?
You’ve become my center.

The sun upon the treetops in your eyes,
it flickers on, but you are oblivious, and
I’ve seen you from this angle countless times,
and every time is like the first.

And as we round the corners I’ll be skittish,
but I’ll be with you to the flying finish.
I promised I would never take for granted
a single hour of our life you’ve enchanted.
It’s trivial and true.

I don’t know where I’d be without you now.
Maybe I’d have found a way to continue on, but how?
How would I get off the ground?
How would I withstand the doubt?
You’ve become my center.
