Cruise Control

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your keys beside the door Said, “Take the long way, nothing more” The avenue was thinning out We let the quiet lead us south [Pre-Chorus] Your hand was easy on the wheel No need to name the way we feel [Chorus] Cruise control, let the miles roll by Your shoulder close and the evening wide We don’t need a map, we don’t need to know Just you and me in cruise control Cruise control, let the whole world slow A little more room for the things we don’t say With your hand in mine and the windows low We can take our time in cruise control [Verse 2] We passed the diner on Route Nine Its paper sign still buzzed in red You told that story one more time I laughed before the punchline hit [Pre-Chorus] The road kept drawing out the miles You looked at me and let it slide [Chorus] Cruise control, let the miles roll by Your shoulder close and the evening wide We don’t need a map, we don’t need to know Just you and me in cruise control Cruise control, let the whole world slow A little more room for the things we don’t say With your hand in mine and the windows low We can take our time in cruise control [Bridge] If tomorrow calls, let it wait a little There’s a soft blue line where the hills begin You can tell me anything, or nothing I like the way the quiet lets us in [Final Chorus] Cruise control, let the miles roll by Your shoulder close and the morning wide We don’t need a map, we don’t need to know Just you and me in cruise control Cruise control, let the whole world slow A little more room for the things we don’t say With your hand in mine and the windows low We can take our time in cruise control [Outro] Take our time, take it slow Just you and me in cruise control
