[Verse 1]

Another New York waltz at four A.M

In the canyons lost at night

The city's just a jail for me

Full of high rise prison walls

And I'm riding through the darkness

'Cause I know there's life within

And I'm searching through the shadows

Just to find that light again


[Chorus]

Keep Driving (Keep Driving)

Let the meter run

Keep Driving (Keep Driving)

Oh the night's not really done

Keep Driving


[Verse 2]

And I'm hanging on a memory and I feel it in the air

I'm a prisoner of these lonely streets but I know I'll find you

There

And oh Lord, you look so pretty but you can see it in my eyes

And just before my tear will fall oh you smile and get inside


[Verse 3]

It seems so real until the light turns green

Don't wake me up don't ruin this dream

Don't take me from my scene

I can't go home don't take me home

I can't go home alone

They don't tell you when the music stops

Or how the movie ends

Is it too late once the feeling's gone

To back it up and start it all again?

Oh Lord you look so pretty

But you can see it in my eyes

And just before my tear will fall

Oh you smile and get inside


[Chorus]

Keep Driving (Keep Driving)

Keep Driving (Keep Driving)

I can't go home

Don't take me home

I can't go home alone

Keep Driving (let the meter run)

Keep Driving (Don't take me home)
