Dhorie and Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Dhorie called me from the corner store Said, “Pack one shirt, we won’t need much more” I grabbed my keys and a paper map You laughed so hard that the whole plan snapped [Pre-Chorus] We didn’t know the name of the place Just a crooked sign and a smiling face [Chorus] Dhorie and me both have been on a yyyyy Rolling past the fences where the tall grass sways No one knows the answer, no one knows the why But we keep going, Dhorie and me, both on a yyyyy [Verse 2] We traded bus fare for a lemon pie Watched a red kite cut across the sky At the station, somebody waved us through Like they’d been waiting all afternoon [Pre-Chorus] We didn’t need a perfect plan Just your hand in mine and a borrowed van [Chorus] Dhorie and me both have been on a yyyyy Rolling past the fences where the tall grass sways No one knows the answer, no one knows the why But we keep going, Dhorie and me, both on a yyyyy [Bridge] Maybe it’s a road, maybe it’s a train Maybe it’s a word we forgot to explain Whatever it is, when the morning arrives We’ll write it down in crooked lines [Final Chorus] Dhorie and me both have been on a yyyyy Laughing at the map as the afternoon fades No one knows the answer, no one knows the why But we keep going, Dhorie and me, both on a yyyyy [Outro] Dhorie and me, still chasing the sign Whatever “yyyyy” means, tonight it feels fine
