lyrics

Do his eyes make you feel like you’re one in a million?
Does his car make you feel like you’re movin' too fast,
For the rest of us?

You’ve been driving so long I can barely remember why you left
This road you’re on makes you hungry to forget the past,
And make a fool of us

You’ve been roamin' on my mind
You’ve been living in my head
Think you’d love to stay that way
You’d better learn to slow it down
Or you may outrun yourself
You could've loved by now

I can see your light though it used to be
As bright as the sun won’t you forfeit the battles
You’ve already won?

You’ve been roamin' on my mind
You’ve been living in my head
Think you’d love to stay that way
You’d better learn to slow it down
Or you may outrun yourself
You could've loved by now

Do his eyes make you feel like you’re one in a million?
Does his car make you feel like you’re movin' too fast,
For the rest of us?
