Lyrics
1. I'm driving down the road, with the sun shine on my face
Yesterday's behind, just a memory to erase
Straight ahead, a new life waves its hand
And I'm running to meet it, as quickly as I can
2. I never expected to leave this old home town.
But a new life is calling, I hear that siren sound
Now I'm gone, I won't be back again
And I'm running to meet it as quickly as I can
Bridge
It's not that the grass is greener ahead than behind
It's just that my heart was stolen away and I have to find it or die.
But there's a big world out there and my future close at hand
And I'm running to meet it, as quickly as I can
3. So I'm driving down the road and I'm gonna win this race
the good news is blasting, a smile is on my face
Straight ahead, a new life waves its hand
And I'm running to meet it, as quickly as I can
Bridge
It's not that the grass is greener ahead than behind
It's just that my heart was stolen away and I have to find it or die.
But there's a big world out there and my future close at hand
And I'm running to meet it, as quickly as I can
yes, I'm running to meet it, as quickly as I can
