Drive Away

Well, I was born on the wrong side of salvation
White clay wall put up, meant to keep us out
And a street's too sweet for a boy to fight temptation
So I broke on through just to tear that highway down

Yeah, I was 17 and you were everything I needed
Your rebel cry I heard two homes away
So you slammed the door, told your Daddy you was leaving
So I walked up to you to just say "Hey"

[Chorus]
And home ain't a safe place for the lonely
And Hell's a place where no one wants to stay
And Love seems to drive us crazy holy
So face the darkness, be my friend, we'll drive away

Woaaaaah (x3)
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away

So I took your hand and said, "I think you're better with me"
Yeah, but you just shook your head and gave me a smile
And said, "Well let's just go run off to Atlantic City
Y'and forget about this life for a while"

[Chorus]
And home ain't a safe place for the lonely
And Hell's a place where no one wants to stay
And Love seems to drive us crazy holy
So face the darkness, be my friend, we'll drive away

Woaaaaah (x3)
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away

Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home
Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home
Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home
Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home
Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home
Come down now, come down baby
Two hearts, one highway, will bring me home

Woaaaaah (x3)
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away
So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away
