I'm driving through the night
To get back to you
Me and these headlights
Trying to get through
Got to keep on going
Got to stay awake
Got to get to you
Before the day breaks
Be back in your street
I'll be back in your head
I'll be back in the heat
Baby, back in your bed
I'll be with you when you open your eyes
I see you in the night sky
Keep it together, and keep on going
All I hear is the engine's moan
Open my eyes to a truck engine roar
Following the lights leading to your door
If I don't stop now, I might not get to you
I've gotta beat the clock, I've gotta get through
Be back in your street
Back in your head
I'll be back in the heat
Baby, back in your bed
Be with you when you open your eyes
I see you in the night sky
Keep it together, keep on going
All I hear is the engine's moan
See a flashing light, roadblock up ahead
Gonna hang a right, take a two-track instead
I gotta get to you, it's been too long
I gotta get through before the night is gone
Be back in your sheets
I'll be back in your head
I'll be back in the heat
Baby, back in your bed
Be with you when you open your eyes
I see you in the night sky
Keep it together, keep on going
All I hear is this engine's moan
A VW bus, not the fastest thing around
If I don't get bust, I'll see you while the sun is down
If I can get through, I'll be back in town
Be back in your room before anyone's around
Back in your sheets
Back in your head
I'll be back in the heat
Baby, back in your bed
Keep it together, keep on going
All I hear is the engine's moan
Be with you when you open your eyes
I see you in the night sky
Driving through the night
To the daylight
Through the headlights
To daylight
