Things are too simple, things are too hard

Nobody's happy with the way things are

Looking for the quick fix, the short term loan

Got to rent 'cause you might not be here long enough to own

The way I see it the trouble with the world these days

It's getting way to easy just to drive away



With you and me baby, it's up and down

We're moving the earth or we're on shaky ground

We talk about forever when it's all going smooth

Or moving out tomorrow if things don't improve

Well the way I see it, the trouble with love these days

It's getting way to easy just to drive away



And you can drive away

If you've got half a mind to and half a tank you can drive away

First sign of trouble, first little thing goes wrong

You can climb in your car and drive 'til you're gone



Whatever we've got it's worth the risk

To read a little promise into every kiss

You pay for the music, but you do get to dance

When you love somebody it's not that big a chance

The way I see it we've got every reason to stay

And every reason to go together if we drive away



And we can drive away

If we need to start again, that's OK we can

Drive away

'Till we find that place where we can live on faith

That we'll never again have to drive away
