    LYRICS:
    In the back of a car on a road in the dark,
    In the stillicide, silently falling snow,
    I have packed everything that I own in a bag,
    And I'm driving, I'm driving to Idaho,
    A poem for leaving, a reason to go,
    So I'm driving, I'm driving to Idaho.
    'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but me,
    And I can't keep dreaming that I'm free, dreaming that I'm free,
    I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
    My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho,
    'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...
    And oh, I've been dumb, I've been perfectly beautiful,
    Lain on my back buying lovers with stealth,
    But I'm sick of you all, and I'm sick of opinions,
    And I'm sick of this war I wage on myself and
    I don't know why I'm so gripped to go there
    A universe riddle that only I know?
    Mr. Robert he says, "It's all in the head!"
    Tell me, Phaedrus, what's good, is it Idaho?
    'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but me,
    And I can't keep dreaming that I'm free, dreaming that I'm free,
    I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
    My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho,
    'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...
    'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...
    'Cause I can't be anyone but me, anyone but me,
    And I can't keep dreaming that I'm free, dreaming that I'm free,
    I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
    My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho,
    I don't want to fall asleep and watch my life from fifty feet,
    My hands are on the wheel so I'm driving to Idaho,
    'Cause I hear it's mighty pretty...
    In Idaho.

    Surely our most talented, yet under-rated, singer-songwriter - such clever lyrics, such wonderfully clear vocals and such a beautiful woman (inside & out)!

    I became an exchange student to Europe to get away from Idaho (my home state) for a while because I despised it. Now I can't wait to go home

    Video is weak? What does that mean? Is there a music video with this song that I don't know about? Oh, unless you're referring to my video in which case it was never meant to be 'strong' just some pictures of Nerina to go with the song.
