Driving with the Brakes On

Driving through the long night

Trying to figure who's right and who's wrong

Now the kid is gone

I sit belted up tight

She pulls on a match light glowing bronze

Steering on

And I might be more of a man

If I stopped this in its tracks and say come on

Lets go home

But she's got the wheel

I've got nothing except what I have on

When you're driving with the brakes on

When you're swimming with your 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 huh

But she just yawns

And she's got the wheel

And I've got to deal from now on

When you're driving with the brakes on

When you're swimming with your boots on

It's hard to say you love someone

And it's hard to say you don't

Unless the moon falls tonight.

Unless continence collides

Nothings gonna make me

Break from her sight

Cuz when you're driving with the breaks on

When you're swimming with your 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 breaks on

When you're driving with the breaks on
