Late fare on a one-way street Bookmark bent where the cold rain meets Found your book by the dashboard light Margin words in a stranger's hand Blue ink bleeding across the page Winter got me thinking who you'd been Read my name in the margin lines Spare a thought for the late-night signs I'm just a driver beneath the town Carrying words that a reader threw down Turn to the page where the pencil shows All I need is the way this goes Somebody left a heart by chapter nine Coffee rings on a borrowed design Half a promise, a subway fold Paper thin and a story told I'm driving through the midnight blue Every light says the same to you Read my name in the margin lines Spare a thought for the late-night signs I'm just a driver beneath the town Carrying words that a reader threw down Turn to the page where the pencil shows All I need is the way this goes Passenger laughed at the radio's cry Said those pages were borrowed from the sky A yellow heart with a stranger's plan Taped inside like a ticket scan I've hauled the morning, the noon, the night Still your pencil keeps the dashboard tight Drop me where the avenue ends Give me back what the book intends Every word in that margin's mine Every quiet can be a sign Cold city calling all night long Hold the page like a passenger's song Sun came creeping across the glass Cold coffee gone in another half I found your last little note in blue Said the book had a way of pulling through One more fare and the meter slows Who left a lifeline in prose Read my name in the margin lines Spare a thought for the late-night signs I'm just a driver who brought it around Carrying words that the reader threw down Turn to the page where the pencil shows We were more than the way this goes Turn to the page where the pencil shows We were more than the way this goes Close the book when the engine complains Rain on the roof, but the story remains Late fare fading into the blue Keep those margin notes close to you Somebody's waiting, somebody's near Turn one more corner, I'll be here
