Lyrics

#VERSE
The little hand is past the peak of my grandaddy's clock
The floorboards old familiar creak and I'm headed down the block
Oh mama don't you worry when you find my empty bed
I promise I'll be home before the sun comes up again

#CHORUS
I just wanna drive far and fast
Away away away
You and me baby what are we running from today

#VERSE
The years roll by and I try and try to find what's true as they pass
I feel the change but I can't see why, like the sun beating down on glass
Sometimes I feel you far away out on the other side
I remember when it was just you and me going out for another ride

#CHORUS
I just wanna drive far and fast
Away away away
You and me baby what are we running from today

#BRIDGE
It's hard to quench a thirst drinkin from a broken cup
When the emptiness is deep and wide
Oh what you gonna fill it up with?

#VERSE
Wish my love was neat as your glass of whiskey simple as an apple pie
But I can't seem to bring my heart peace in this wild and precious life
They say love ain’t worth the giving if it ain't worth fighting for
Will you be there waiting for me when I walk back through the door

#CHORUS
I just wanna drive far and fast
Away away away
You and me baby what are we running from today
