(Verse 1)
The bottle’s half empty, the room is spinning slow
You hung up ten minutes ago, said you had to go.
"Sleep well," you told me, with that steady, calm voice
Like leaving me lonely was a rational choice.
But logic don't work when the lights go down low
And my mind goes to places that we shouldn't go.
I’m tracing the patterns on the sheets where you lay
Wishing this distance would just fade away.
(Pre-Chorus)
You’re miles away, being good, being wise
I’m here with the devil looking out of my eyes.
I don't want your friendship, I don't want your text
I’m wondering what we should be doing next.
(Chorus)
So get in the car, baby, drive through the dark
I don't care if we crash, I just need the spark.
I’m tired of talking, I’m done with the phone
I don't want to spend another night here alone.
Come make a mistake, come break all the rules
Let’s stop pretending we’re stubborn old fools.
I need your hands, not your words on the screen
Come finish the dream... if you know what I mean.
(Verse 2)
You say that we’re over, you say it was fast
That we were a fire that wasn't built to last.
But why do you answer on the very first ring?
And why does your voice have that hesitate sting?
I know you’re awake, staring up at the roof
Hungry for something, looking for proof.
So swallow your pride, leave the keys in the door
And give me the thing I’ve been waiting for.
(Pre-Chorus)
You’re miles away, being good, being wise
I’m here with the desire burning out of my eyes.
I don't want your advice, I don't want your respect
I want the reaction that I expect.
(Chorus)
So get in the car, baby, drive through the dark
I don't care if we crash, I just need the spark.
I’m tired of talking, I’m done with the phone
I don't want to spend another night here alone.
Come make a mistake, come break all the rules
Let’s stop pretending we’re stubborn old fools.
I need your hands, not your words on the screen
Come finish the dream... if you know what I mean.
(Bridge)
Seventy clicks, it’s an hour at best
Put the "professor" and "student" to rest.
Just be a man who wants a woman tonight
We can fix it tomorrow, we can make it all right.
(Or we can break it again. I don't care.)
Just come over here.
(Guitar/Synth Solo)
(Deep, bass-heavy, sensual rhythm)
(Chorus)
So get in the car, baby, drive through the dark
I don't care if we crash, I just need the spark.
I want you here, want you right by my side
Forget about reasons, forget about pride.
I need your hands, not your words on the screen
Come finish the dream.
(Outro)
Yeah, come finish the dream.
Midnight logic...
Just get in the car.
(Fade out)
