Windows down, it's warmer out, I'm feeling better
Pause it now, or slow it down to keep forever
One year back, I'd never had something to treasure
But now I do
Can I stay a little longer, here with you?

Driving in the fast lane, burning down the highway
No one understands me like you
Doin' everything we only ever dreamed
'Cause I could never do it
Until you took all the shattered parts
And held my broken heart
You got me from the start
So, if it's reckless and insane, I'll do it anyways 'cause
No one understands me like you do

Letting go of all our ghosts, return to living
You're my home, the lights that glow when the world is dimming
It's you and me vs. Everything
This time, we're finally winning
'Cause to hold you is to know that I can hold on to the feeling of

Driving in the fast lane, burning down the highway
No one understands me like you
Doin' everything we only ever dreamed
'Cause I could never do it
Until you took all the shattered parts
And held my broken heart
You got me from the start
So, if it's reckless and insane, I'll do it anyways 'cause
No one understands me like you do

(Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, like you do)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

And, to little me
I'd tell her: Wait for it
You're not the only damaged kid
Who just can't seem to catch a break
You'll find that peace of mind one day
In people who feel like a home
Who'll root for you and watch you grow
Like pulling stars straight from the skyline
The kind of love that lasts a lifetime
Driving in the fast lane, burning down the highway
No one understands me like you do

Driving in the fast lane, burning down the highway
No one understands me like you
Doing everything we only ever dreamed
'Cause I could never do it
Until you took all the shattered parts
And held my broken heart
You got me from the start
So, if it's reckless and insane, I'll do it anyways 'cause
No one understands me like you do
