Story Behind The Song

Sarah wants to get away from it all - all she wants to do is, "...get on the road and drive." And go where no one knows her name where she can start life all over. We all feel like getting away from it all sometimes.

Lyrics

DRIVE

Sarah needs a long vacation
Some place far away from here
When she decides to wake up
She'll put on her make up
And find a way to disappear

All she wants to do is
Get on the road and drive

Sarah's tired of conversation
People just don't understand
They think she's crazy
And that she just maybe
Has an ulterior plan

All she wants to do is
Get on the road and drive

Go where nobody knows your name
Drive til you just don't feel the same
Find a way to start all over again

Once upon a life
She thought she felt alive
She had to run and hide
Only to survive

Looking back it's all slow motion
Seeing things from all points of view
She says there's no satisfaction or
Rest, relaxation
And she wants to find someplace new

All she wants to do is...
All she has to do is...
Get on the road and drive

Go where nobody knows your name
Drive til you just don't feel the same
Find a way to start all over again

Music & Lyrics by Bill Hunter © 2003

Very good sound here. I love the construction, even though there's no extremely discernible chorus. Killer instrumental and great guitar work throughout.Great lyrics. Nice job.

great mix, excellent vox, reminds me more of southern rock.
nice sectional contrast as well as well thought out lyrics.
harmonies are spot on and clean. could easily hear this in current TV shows.

nice retro rock tune, not really modern rock IMO, but well produced, played and mixed. good structure. nice lead guitar work.

The main guitar riff is really catchy. The overall feel of the song is uplifting and puts you in a good mood. Great change to the chorus that keeps the song interesting. Well produced sound image and arrangement.

Well-played rock song.
