Baby, I've been thinking
It's too hard to speak these nights
Can I confess what's on my chest
What's really on my mind
Tell you, I never was scared of nothing
There was nothing that we couldn't do
We used to think that we could walk on water
Just because we wanted to
And it all seemed so easy
When we were living not just a lie
We talked about dreams
And how we would like to spend our lives
When freedom was a tank of gas
On a long summer night
To drive
Just drive
Can you keep a secret
Baby, if you can't, just lie
All I want is scream
When I had this dream
That my whole life passed me by
And I sold my heart for diamonds
And I sold some for gold
There's lots of things that I can't get back
That the record company owns
When 17 has turned 30
And kids said goodbye
Hey baby, maybe we're kids no more
But I'm too young to die
There's still some freedom in this tank of gas
And you by my side
We'll drive
Just drive
Don't want no airplanes
No ticket for a fast train
All I want is a two-lane
With you by my side
We'll drive
All night long
Get on the border
We'll drive
With the radio on
You can leave your head on my shoulder
And just for a while
We'll go about the world
Mile after mile
We'll drive
All night long
You want a ride
No airplane
No ticket on a fast train
All I wanted was a two-lane
And you by my side
We'll drive
All night long
Get on the border
We'll drive
With the radio on
