Lyrics
Drive
Lyrics Jesse Galchick/Music Rob Allison
You sit in the hallway every night?getting? ready for another fight
Your mom she is crying, your dad?s just too damn mean
You stare out the window into the moonlight?
Another tear runs down your face and you dream of another place.
(Chorus)
So you drive?drive away from this town
Never comin? back around?never went back there
Ohhh whoaaa?and look at you now.
You sit there in your office?with your pen in your hand
Just dreadin? the thoughts of goin home to your old man
Three kids and mini van, it?s more than you can stand
You go home and fight, just like they did then
(Chorus)
So you drive?drive away from this town
Never comin? back around?never went back there
Ohhh whoaaa?and look at you now.
You can forget about your past?it can?t hurt you anymore
Put it all behind you and close the door.
On your way home from work?late one night
It hit you right between your eyes
You can change it all?you can make it right?if you just give it some time.
(Chorus)
So you drive?drive away from this town
Never comin? back around?never went back there
Ohhh whoaaa?and look at you now.
