I've got a plan, but it's going to take some time
for me to figure out what it is.
I've got a girl who's so sure of herself
and surely I'm sure that I'm unsure of myself.
I know that my time is running out now,
I know that I've got to get it into gear.
My engine light's on, it says "SERVICE ENGINE SOON"
Well little engine light, please don't tell me what to do.
Cruise control till I'm done with school.
I don't know what I want, but I know that it's you.
Steer me straight when I lose control,
'cause you know I hate driving, but I sure love you.
Time moves slower when I stare at the clock,
but I find myself with nothing else to do.
I could draw a picture and put it on the wall
or give another picture to you.
But a picture's worth more words than I'll ever know,
especially one with you.
But I'm stuck at work or school or just stuck
feeling like I'm going nowhere soon.
And I love the sun and I love your hair,
and I love the way you don't have too many cares.
And I love the beach and your skin in the sand
and I love the way you feel in my hands.
