[Verse 1]
I can't expect you to be honest
Or to be faithful every day 'til the end
I just need you to be always a friend
As the sun sets over Dakotas
Underneath a crimson ocean of sky
Know I'll always want you by my side

[Chorus]
When we drive
When we drive

[Verse 2]
You and I were born in motion
Never in one place for too long a time
And now it's the only way we know to survive
I like the way your hair tangles
The way your sun tan's only on one side
We always keep the windows open wide

[Chorus]
When we drive
When we drive

[Bridge]
Climb into the back seat and close your eyes
I've got the wheel
And dream of all the places only we will find

[Verse 3]
I can't expect you to be honest
Or to be faithful every day 'til the end
I just need you to be always a friend
Until the engine kicks and sputters
Until we roll the rubber off the tires
Know I'll always need you by my side

[Chorus]
When we drive
When we drive
