Verse 1
I’m going 80 down 65,
making my way to you
Show you that you’re worth it
with the thing I’m about to do
I’m going 80 down 65,
rehearsing words in my head
Hoping I get the words out
before I end up in your bed
Pre-Chorus
I don’t know why you won’t listen
I don’t know why you can’t see
I’m never gonna be her, baby it’s you and me
Chorus
Well I can drive all night,
put the pedal to the floor
Get there in record time,
but baby you don’t want me anymore
And I don’t know why,
oh I don’t know why
I’m driving 80 down 65
Verse 2
I’m going 80 down 65,
driving through the tears
What turned out less than two months could be a million years
I’m going 80 down 65,
lot of yellow lines of blur
Wondering how you could ignore me when you tried so hard for her
Pre-Chorus
Would you rather me neglect you?
Put you down and act a fool
Well that may’ve worked for her
but that’s something I’ll never do
Chorus
Well I can drive all night,
put the pedal to the floor
Get there in record time,
but baby you don’t want me anymore
And I don’t know why, oh I don’t know why
I’m driving 80 down 65
Bridge
Oh, I never tried so hard, never trusted so soon
You told me you were ready, baby I believed you
Chorus
Well I can drive all night, put the pedal to the floor
Get there in record time, but baby you don’t want me anymore
And I don’t know why, oh I don’t know why
I’m driving 80 down 65
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
I’m driving 80 down 65
