Drivin' 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,
steerin' on
And I might be
more of 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 nothin'
except what
I have on
When you're drivin'
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
She just yawns
And we might get
lost some place
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
When you're drivin'
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
Nothin's gonna
make me
Break from her side...
'Cos when you're drivin'
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
