Driving Lessons

Its a rainy monday
But dark clouds fade away
When we hear our favorite songs
Playing on the radio
You're driving
I'm watching and learning
You say someday soon
It'll be your turn

And its gonna feel like freedom
The highway holds some wisdom

Don't speed through life
Just take your time
Its not a race so take a break if you're tired
You're bound to get lost
Every once in a while
Wrong turns and detours
Are worth the ride
So just keep driving

Flash forward now
I'm the one at the wheel
And you're sitting in the passenger seat
Its scary how fast time flies
These days
I hate seeing you age
And I try to remember everything

You say "its going to be a long road
Keep going cause you're so close"

Don't speed through life
Just take your time
Its not a race so take a break if you're tired
You're bound to get lost
Every once in a while
Wrong turns and detours
Are worth the ride
So just keep driving

Remember not to hit the breaks in a rainstorm
And its better to be late than not get there at all
Driving lessons in our neighborhood parking lot
Looking back on memories
I wish I held on tighter
Cause now I'm watching them slip through your fingers
You're fading away
Don't speed through life
Just take your time
Its not a race so take a break if you're tired
You're bound to get lost
Every once in a while
Wrong turns and detours
Are worth the ride
So just keep driving
Just keep driving
