IF YOU DON'T MIND DRIVING
copyright 2002 Rhonda Fletcher

Is he gone again
left you there alone
Do you feel the rage once more
are you even surprised he's gone
Is it really over this time
or will you stay on the ride
Everything must be replaced
do you have the ability inside
I need to tell you a truth
one you've always refused to hear
You don't have to chase what's yours
and love's not made out of pain...or fear

Pick yourself up
don't stop striving
Salvation does exist
if you don't mind driving

I know the edge is close
and that you're slipping fast
Reach for one who'll catch you
someone whose love will last
How much more can be given
if no heart or soul is left
As once again you're hurting
and waiting only for death
Warning others of the road
you lie down there instead
Waiting for the impact
as he crashes
...leaving you for dead

Pick yourself up
don't stop striving
Salvation does exist
if you don't mind driving

You lost your place again
one you decided to deserve
you mean so little to him
that he threw another curve
It hurts doesn't it
dropped and stepped on again
Losing so much you can't pray
to find out what was your sin
It's been full speed ahead
toward the wrong horizon
Just let go and turn around
head to where the sun is rising

Pick yourself up
don't stop striving
Salvation does exist
if you don't mind driving
