Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I look at you, I see myself
And it always takes me home
I think of us and where we stand
How we′ve seen each other grow
Far away we travel
But I feel it in my bones
You keep me warm
You keep me warm

A thousand miles of empty space
But you still fill the hole
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
In the night, silences
I remember where I am
In the dark, wide awake
Dreaming under your command
(Dreaming under your command)
Far away we travel
But I feel it in my bones
You keep me warm
You keep me warm
A thousand miles of empty space
But you still fill the hole
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me
Do you miss me, like I miss you?
Do you need me, like I need you?
Do you love me, like I love you?
A thousand miles of empty space (do you miss me, like I miss you?)
But you still fill the hole (do you need me, like I need you?)
You drive me home (do you love me, like I love you?)
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me
A thousand miles of empty space (you drive me home)

But you still fill the hole (you drive me home)
You drive me home (you drive me home)

I look at you, I see myself
You and I are alike in many ways

And it always takes me home
Thinking about you feels like going back to where I belong

I think of us and where we stand
I consider our relationship and its current state

How we've seen each other grow
I reflect on how we have seen each other change and develop

Far away we travel
Despite being far apart from each other

But I feel it in my bones
I can still feel the connection between us

You keep me warm
You provide me with comfort and support

A thousand miles of empty space
Despite the physical distance between us

But you still fill the hole
You still make up for the emptiness and loneliness I feel

You drive me home
You bring me back to my happy and content state

In the night, silences
During quiet moments in the night
