Rockabilly makes an appearance with this tale of two lovers destined to drive into the ditch (all apologies to Neil Young for the lifting of that simile)
lyrics
I suppose we were young
I suppose we were sincere
We were desperate for love
If that ain't the truth, it's pretty near
I was grieving, I was lost
A twist of fate and our paths crossed
When you've got nothing it's so easy to believe
We fell hard, we fell fast
Felt so sure this love would last
We were flying down that highway
Riding high and low on gas
But the signs were all wrong
We should have seen it all along
Forward motion swept us right into the ditch
Break away, break away
Took so long to break away
And I find my take away's
Poor compensation for all the years
Well the signs were all wrong
We should have seen it all along
Forward motion drove us right into the ditch
Break away, break away
Took so long to break away
And I find my take away's
Poor compensation for all the tears
Well the signs were all wrong
We should have seen it all along
Forward motion drove us right into the ditch
Forward motion drove us right into the ditch
Oh, forward motion drove us right into the ditch
