Metronomy - Back On The Motorway lyrics
[Metronomy - Back On The Motorway lyrics]
So now she's run off with my car
But I can't live without her
(and it's so hard to take)
So I've set off out to find her
I'm back on the motorway
At this wheel I'd drive the earth for her
Every carriageway a mile for her
These five gears and wheels
Could drive to her
But this carriageway can't take me there
Drivin' at ninety miles per hour
It's hard to know what's comin'
Then on the horizon
Something makes me brake
I can see me darlin' ahead on the motorway
(I can see us dying on
The bonnet of a chevrolet)
So why's my baby lying on
The side of the motorway
(I wish that I had never said the
Things that I'd told her today)
'Cos now she's left me crying on
The shoulder of the motorway
At this wheel I'd drive the earth for her
Every carriageway a mile for her
These five gears and wheels
Could drive to her
But this carriageway can't take me there
