Cruise Lyrics

Cruise lyrics

Well I backstroked through my high school years

Changing lanes and changing gears

Thought I was invincible

Thinking I could change the world

Cutting classes breaking rules

The learning started after school

You were there we’d slip away

Drive right through the yawning day and...



Cruise

Never check the review mirror

Cruise

Watch the future getting clearer 

Shut your mouth and close your eyes

Put the seat back let me drive and cruise



With a name tag and a bright blue vest

They put the handcuffs on your wrist

Your careless summer’s been replaced

A smile's a stranger to your face

And my fingers punch the cold white keys

I’m commas and apostrophes

Someday we’ll get out of this

Leave a postcard on the desk and...



Cruise

Never stop to think about it

Cruise

Not a single doubt about it

Feet don’t ever touch the ground

So high we’re not coming down we cruise



And my body aches

For the warm embrace

Of a better day

Oh it’s not too late to slip away

Not too late to slip away now
