Mikayla Lane - Drive Lyrics

Written By: Mikayla Lane, John Conrad

Hidden back behind the barn
Right beside the cattle guard
Mama laid her teenage dream to rest
A '68 in Nordic Blue
The Firebird she bought brand new
Hadn't turned the key since Daddy left

She can still hear that old 4 speed echoing inside her mind
It's a shame she had to leave that dream behind

She would drive all night long
See the sun rise at dawn
Got a hunger for the open road
Sky above and all alone
Headlights cut right through the summer nights
When she drives

One evening as the sky went dark
Mama had a change of heart
Topped her off with brand new gasonline
Closed her eyes and held the wheel
It's funny how some dreams are real
And in a blink she's back at 17

And she could still remember how that gravel road would feel
There's never been a wound that time won't heal

When she drives all night long
See the sun rise at dawn
Got a hunger for the open road
Sky above and all alone
Headlights cut right through the summer nights
When she drives

She would drive all night long
See the sun rise at dawn, yeah yeah
Got a hunger for the open road
Sky above and all alone
Headlights cut right through the summer nights
When she drives
When she drives
