lyrics
The thermos rolls by your knee Five-thirty cuts the fjord in half Your gloves hang wet from the backseat seam The wipers count the blacktop path You tap the glass once, then you laugh At the crabbed frost along the edge I keep both hands on the wheel You hum along the window ledge Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm At Balsfjord, the diesel thins A paper bag leans against my shoes Your scarf still smells like wool and salt The radio fades into the bruise We pass the cattle by the fence Their white backs shining through the snow You turn the map inside your pocket And leave the next turn soft and low Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm At the last bridge, you reach for mine Two warm fingers in the dark The ferry horn drifts over ice And the dashboard lights the sparks Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm Keep the road warm
