She wanted to start over …..
Got in her car…..
and began to drive…..
Drive
Each note he played – played in her heart
Each word he sang was just the start
She thought about her thoughts inside
She knew she couldn’t try to hide
The way she felt – just so alive
Got in her car – and began to drive
Drove out of town a long, long way
She drove all night and she drove all day
She knew she had to try and find
Her inner self – her inner child
She knew she had to have some fun
She knew she had to love someone
The way she felt – just so alive
Got in her car – and began to drive
She couldn’t face an endless night
She drove all day and through the night
She couldn’t stop to crash and burn
She couldn’t wait to have a turn
To breathe and laugh and laugh and play
And love each hour of every day
The way she felt – just so alive
Got in her car – and began to drive
She couldn’t help but sit and smile
She kept on going on her drive
She smiled and sang and felt relaxed
She knew she had a second chance
Each word he sang was just the start
Each note he played stayed in her heart
The way she felt – just so alive
Got in her car – and began to drive
Got in her car – and began to drive
Got in her car – and began to drive ………
