about

This song is about preparing for loss. It was written when a mate of mine was grieving for a friend who had passed. I realised; I would soon lose a friend of my own.

lyrics

Slow Ride by Rob Jennings

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Yeah

Well, you know that these shots warmed fires cold,
We sat there staring outward growing old,
The dust sits now where our stories told,
I just think how our lives have come unfold.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

I watch for you through a boarded door,
I remember you before our times were poor,
sneaking out at nights before winter called,
Watching to the sky knowing our cause.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.

Well, it's a slow ride,
Cause, a friend died,
and the car goes down the dirt of my old town road.
