Driving With The Brakes On

(альбом: I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself - 2021)

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 its tracks
And said come on
Let's go home
But she's got the wheel
And 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 hon
And she just yawns

And we might get lost someplace
So desolate that no one where we're from would ever come
But she's got the wheel
And I've got to deal from now on

And 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

But unless the moon falls tonight
Unless continents collide
Nothing's gonna make me break from her side

'Cause 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
It's hard to say you love someone
And it's hard to say you don't
