Oui Have Been Hard At Work

K.C. has been binge writing all week and cranked out six new songs (I Get By, Restless Love, I Won't Sleep, Firefly, Sunday Train, Midnight Drive) and rewrote Deadman.  Meanwhile Dan cranked out two more songs on Tuesday.  Who knows, Oui may have another album's worth by weeks end.

Here's a new one


Midnight Drive

Spent all day inside
Stirring in my fog
Stepping out the front door I come undone

The air smells like rain
Mixed with wet asphalt
 Dragging both my shoes to hear the sound

I took a midnight drive, went running in the rain
Something I’ve debated all my life
Passing cars like trees along the way
Felt so alive that I almost died

The keys in my hand
Are ringing like a bell
Opening my door I’m scared as hell

Blurry highway signs
An unfamiliar road
Reading like a lie told late at night

I took a midnight drive, went running in the rain
Something I’ve debated all my life
Passing cars like trees along the way
Felt so alive that I almost died

Pressing down my foot
Screaming out my name
Rain upon the windshield sheeting off

Slipping from the road
Losing all control
Emptying my lungs the glass is fogged

I took a midnight drive, went running in the rain
Something I’ve debated all my life
Passing cars like trees along the way
Felt so alive that I almost died
