Driving With the Brakes On Lyrics

Driving through the long night
Trying to figure who's right and who's wrong
Now the kid has gone. I sit belted up tight
She sucks on a match light, glowing bronze, steering on
And I might be more a man if I stopped this in it's tracks
And said come on, let's go home. But she's got the wheel
And I've got nothing 'xcept what I have on ..
CHORUS:
When you're driving with the brakes on
When you're swimming with you're boots on
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't
Trying to keep the mood right
trying to steer the conversation from
The thing we've done. She shuts up the ashtray
and I say "it's a long way back now hun" but she just yawns
But she's got the wheel
and I've got to deal from now on ..
CHORUS:
When you're driving with the brakes on
When you're swimming with you're boots on
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't
But unless the moon falls tonight
unless continents collide
Nothing's gonna make me
break from her side
CHORUS:
Cuz when you're driving with the brakes on
When you're swimming with you're boots on
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't
When you're driving with the brakes on
When you're driving with the brakes on
