Driving My Love Away
Rewrite of Eddie Rabbitt's Drivin' My Life Away
Well, for just a moment
I was caught
Echanted by your midnight headlight
Fell for you hard
On a rainy night
Knew it would be a long haul ahead
Thought if we went slow
Took our time
Our love forever would keep growin'
But those windshield wipers
Started slappin' out too fast a tempo
And farther and farther
Miles away you begin to creep
Throwin' off our perfect ryhthm
Mishead our love song on the radio
And that's when I knew
Slowly but surely
On me
You were rollin'
OOh, you're drivin' my love away
Throwin' the best of us away
Every chance you get
You're betrayin' me
Turnin' dark my sunny day
Well, I know all about that truck stop cutie
Yeah, she spilled all to me
How she talked you into
A little cheat and ride
And now it seems you're not even sorry
You rode away from our future
Oh baby
Honey, I'm no empty brain waitress
I'm here for me
Not to serve you
Another cup of coffee
So don't expect me to stay around
When it comes to your mistake
You won't man up
So this time I'll be the one
Shootin' out
Flyin' down the highway
Lookin' for a love with a deeper meaning
Chorus
Well, for just a moment
I was caught
Enchanted by your midnight headlight
Fell for you hard
On a rainy night
Knew it would be a long haul ahead
Thought if we took our time
Our love forever would keep growing
But those windshield wipers
Started slappin' out too fast a tempo
And farther and farther
Miles away you begin to creep
Throwin' off our perfect rhythm
Misheard our love song on the radio
And that's when I knew
Slowly but surely
On me
You were rollin'
Ooh, you're drivin' my love away
Throwin' all our best away
Every chance you get
Betraying me
Ooh, you're drivin' my love away
Turnin' dark my sunny day
Ooh, you're drivin' my love away
Throwin' all our best away
Every chance you get
Betraying me
Ooh, you're drivin' my love away
Turnin' dark my sunny day
Ooh, you're drivin' my love away
Throwin' all our best away
Betraying me
Every chance you get
