Lyrics
I've put Jesus in the glovebox, he doesn't need to know
Why I'm crying like a baby on this unknown road
Truck is goin' down hill, I'm starin' in reverse
Since Cupid's arrow hit us everything looks worse
I love my husband back west,
I'm truly blessed,
Why oh why
Throw away what's real for just a fantasy
Risk a love that everybody sees
I feel crazy now from head to toe
I've put Jesus in the glovebox, he doesn't need to know...
I've put Jesus in the glove box, he doesn't need to hear
Me swearin' at the mirror cause I made this mess appear
I cannot see ahead, it's raining down like knives
But I can see my journey is gonna wreck lives
So why do I play with fire?
I never was a liar
Why oh why
Throw away what's real for just a fantasy
Risk a love that everybody sees
I'm crazy now from head to toe
I've put Jesus in the glovebox, he doesn't need to know...
It's just a wooden statue, I know it's not real
I've got to believe, he knows just how I feel
Why oh why
Throw away what's real for just a fantasy
Risk a love that everybody sees
I'm crazy now from head to toe
I've put Jesus in the glovebox, he doesn't need to know...
I'm taking Jesus from the glovebox, he's the only one who knows
If l should make a U turn, or continue down this road?
I'm taking Jesus from the glovebox
He's the only one who knows.
