[00:00.00]Drive Safely Darlin' - Tony Christie
[00:22.91]Outside a storm was blowin'
[00:25.64]And the rain was whippin' down
[00:29.90]But she'd set her mind on going
[00:33.04]To visit out of town
[00:37.09]"Give my love to your mum and dad" I said
[00:39.81]As i kissed her at the door
[00:44.06]And the words came automatically
[00:47.01]Like a thousand times before
[00:50.55]Drive safely darlin'
[00:53.40]There's a long long road ahead
[00:56.89]And the weatherman says
[00:58.41]The freezing rain may turn to snow
[01:02.61]Mind how you go
[01:04.68]Drive safely darlin'
[01:08.08]Mind how you go
[01:10.24]Drive safely darlin'
[01:19.65]It was kind of fun without her
[01:22.52]Just being on my own
[01:26.78]But as usual by the evening
[01:29.64]I was wishing she was home
[01:33.92]And I thought to myself when she gets back
[01:37.13]I'll show her how I care
[01:41.14]And on that God-forsaken night
[01:44.04]I said me a little prayer
[01:47.57]Drive safely darlin'
[01:50.23]There's a long long road ahead
[01:53.86]And the weatherman says
[01:55.35]The freezing rain may turn to snow
[01:59.61]Mind how you go
[02:01.75]Drive safely darlin'
[02:05.33]Mind how you go
[02:07.38]Drive safely darlin'
[02:16.88]Well I waited and I worried
[02:19.65]As the long night dragged on by
[02:23.97]And I thought my prayers were answered
[02:26.97]When a car drew up outside
[02:31.16]But a stranger stood there by the door
[02:35.61]And I knew it at a glance
[02:40.66]He said
[02:41.29]"There's been an accident
[02:43.31]She didn't stand a chance "
[02:48.80]Drive safely darlin'
[02:51.44]That was our last goodbye
[02:54.93]Till the day I die
[02:56.38]I'll wonder why I let her go
[03:00.54]In the wind and snow
[03:02.75]Drive safely darlin'
[03:03.60]I'll never know
[03:06.33]I miss her so
[03:08.35]Drive safely darlin'
[03:11.77]Why I let her go
[03:13.91]Drive safely darlin'
