lyrics

It’s just another sunny day “it always is this time of year”
And Mr. Maxwell’s taken all my blues away
Start the engine let’s get going feel the power overflowing
Time to make our getaway

Buckle up your better half, don’t forget to wear a scarf
You might as well in case it rains “it’s such a lovely day”
Flip the switch, drop the top your Mother seems to talk alot
She’s a back seat driver yeah
”she’s taking over”

There’s a warning sign from the dashboard light And it seems we’re running low

Overtaking never breaking changing lanes anticipating Gotta love the open road
Push the pedal to the floor try to squeeze a little more Bowie’s on the radio, floating in a tin can
We fill her up with 95 check the oil so we can drive
Grab ourselves a coffee and a sandwich then we’re on our way

Here we go “here we go again”
Around the block again “this time around”
I can’t say no, I guess I’ll see you round the bend
It’s looking like we’re right on time, everything is going fine
Maxwell’s got some Revels and a Bounty and a Milky Way

Here we go “here we go again”
Around the block again “this time around”
I can’t say no, I guess I’ll see you round the bend
The girl next door wants to take it slow If you don’t try then you’ll never know
It all makes sense in perfect tense
This other side of your innocence
The girl next door with the open mind
If you don’t look, then you’ll never find
The sun and the moon and the stars above When planets align, that’s when we fall in love
That’s when we fall in love “when we fall in love”

That’s when we fall in love, I think I’m falling in love Sunday drivers take it easy they’ve got nowhere to go And somewhere there’s a sign ahead
Just 20 miles from home
I think I’m falling in love

You gotta, slow down sometimes
You gotta, take it easy
You gotta, leave the fast lane
Open road no one in front of me
You gotta, keep your distance
You gotta, watch those red lights
You gotta, check your rearview
Open road, I think I’m falling in love I think I’m falling in love
It’s such a lovely day
Such a lovely day
It’s just another sunny day “it always is this time of year”
And Mr. Maxwell’s taken all my blues away
