Lyrics
DRIVING THIS DREAM
There's carni-folk at the Laundromat
Staring into the machines
You've got the whole day ahead of you
Behind the wheel of a dream
And I'm driving this dream away
Far away from here
Heading down from a lonely town
You can't escape the tears
She gets in, you bravely close the door
Blinded by beauty, you run around the car
Get on in, start her right up
You gotta leave early to get very far
I'm driving this dream away
So far away from here
Heading down from a lonely town
You can't escape the fear
Hold on tight
Things could change at any moment
'Cause you know how dreams are
And it's so hard to hold 'em
She breaks your heart, you're not surprised
So you break someone else's to even the sides
You're driving toxed and not heeding the signs
How far will you go before you realize
You're driving this dream away
Too far away from here
Heading down to a lonely town
Come back don't disappear
