B Howard Crist - Drive Away Lyrics

When a grown man
Can't hold a girl's hand
For more than 3 weeks at a time
Wasting hers and running out of mine
That old memory from home
Comes to cut me to the bone
And the rest cloud up my mind
And the flowers Wilt and die

A choice to choose taken away
I was a boy until that day
Forced to go through life too fast
With a head full of broken glass
When your left holding the blame
Things will never be the same
Take what's left of your Past
Present tense and foot on the gas

And drive away

Mirror mirror on the wall
I don't know this man at all
Something familiar with his eyes
Maybe someone I left behind
And this girl in my bed
Brings me flowers instead
Should bring Color to my life
But they just wilt away and die

A choice to choose taken away
I was a boy until that day
Forced to go through too fast
With a head full of broken glass
When your left holding the blame
Things will never be same
Take what's left of your past
Present tense foot on the gas
And drive away

Now hard as nails just ain't my way
At least not on the first day
And now I'm lying here with you
And you know what all I've been through
And your time spent with me
It ain't worth your misery
But you just look me in the eye
And tell me you ain't to leaving kind

Cause my choice was taken too
And I know what you're going through
You've been living life too fast
Afraid to let up off the gas
And you were never to blame
Cuz we both share the same Damn shame
Leave your past in the past
You're present tense no looking back
You're okay
You're finally safe
Just say you'll stay
Don't drive away

Don't drive away.
