Don’t hold back
Don’t look down
Give me your hand,
Beautiful girl
And we’ll drive round
Just say yes
Just choose me
All that I am
For all that you are
And we’re home free
What do you see in the rearview now?
Side roads and handholds with the windows all rolled downb
Tell me you’re glad
That it was worth the read
The story we told down a well-traveled road
Still drives me
Just drive on
Follow that star
Don’t you worry about me
Cause I’m gonna be
Where you are
Down the ribbon of road
Isn’t it great?
They were causing a fuss
They were thinking of us
When they paved the interstate
What do you see in the rearview now?
Side roads and handholds still can get us home somehow
Tell me your glad
That it was worth the read
The story we told down a well-traveled road
Still drives me
All these thoughts of you
Howling at the moon beyond the sea
The splendid way you move
The simple weight of you up against me
Before we go…before we go
Don’t hold back
Don’t look down
Give me your hand,
Beautiful girl
