Lyrics

Been driving a while 'round in circles
So it seems
But something in my heart says
This ain't how it has to be
Sometimes I wonder
Is this really meant for me
Then I remind myself
It's okay to dream, yeah

Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive

It's gonna be hard to get as far
As I need to go
But I've got this car
And I see success
Down the road
Just down the road
If this is the road I've been waiting for
I'm taking it
I'm so done with sitting around
And faking it, yeah

Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive

I'm taking off
Not gonna stop'til I've reached my destination
I'm gonna break
Outside the box
Not gonna be like anyone else
This is it
This is me
This road will take me where I need to be
If this is the road I've been waiting for I'm taking it

Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
Tell me baby do you wanna go for a drive?
The wind in my hair makes me feel so alive
