I Called My Dad From the Motorway

[Verse]

I pulled into a lay-by about a hundred miles from home

with no particular reason and no emergency at all

and I sat there for a minute with the engine still running

and then I did a thing I have not done since I was a boy.

[Pre-Chorus]

He picked up on the second ring. He always picks up.

He has never once asked why I am calling this late.
