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 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 and told your daddy you was leaving So I walked up to you to just say, "Hey" 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 Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away Yeah, 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, "Let's just go run off to Atlantic City Yeah, and forget about this life for a while" 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 Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh 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 Ooh-ooh-ooh I'll be home Ooh-ooh-ooh 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 Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away So face the darkness, by my friend, we'll drive away
