Stephen Duffy And The Lilac Time - Driving Somewhere lyrics

You said: "I'll take life as it comes" She said: "I think it's come and gone" So you left and now you're on your own Too late, the blacktop is your home Driving somewhere, arriving nowhere You never get out of your car Doing something amounts to nothing You don't remember who you are You don't remember who you are "Come back" you long for her to say "I need you and you need somewhere to stay I know there's nothing you hold dear But in me you have a volunteer" Driving somewhere, arriving nowhere You never get out of your car Doing something amounts to nothing You don't remember who you are You don't remember who you are You're never happy but now you are in gear You don't know where you're going It's easier, easier to steer Oh, where did the long hair go? Wedgwood Benn, Brigitte Bardot Her ballet shoes run through the snow And every 'yes' becomes a 'no' Driving somewhere, arriving nowhere You never get out of your car Doing something amounts to nothing You don't remember who you are You don't remember who you are
