Drive That Fast

I love this song and it also reminds me of my greatest regret in life. It makes me wish I could reach back in time and pull a friend out of an unfortunate end. There’s so much they never got to do or see and I hate that.

You stand here in my place
Feel the warmth upon your face
Stand back and start to smile
You now have time
You now have will

I would never want to leave this country
Where roads are fast and knowledge easy
I would never want to take you with me
Unless you're open
And trust my hand

I would never wish this much on you
When what you have might be enough
I would never want to drive that fast
Unless you're ready, willing, happy

Take me
Away from these simple feelings
I know
There's places on the other sides of here
Take me

Away from these simple feelings
I know
I'll take that car and drive there faster
