For Me Lyrics

I know I'm probably the only one

Who's awake right now

'Cause they don't stay up late thinking of me

Like I do for them

So I go to my car and start to drive

Right out of this town

I don't know where I'll end up

But I hope it won't be with them

I like to drive around at night

'Cause the lights turn green for me every time

I envy the people who never speed

'Cause they never feel like their life is in a hurry

Now I look in the streets

And the lights from the city

Waving down cars but they

Won't even stop for me

I always somehow

End up in the driver's seat

I'll drive them miles but

They won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

I know they only are asking for rides

To get where they're going

And I always check my rear view mirror to see

If my past has caught up to me

I'd rather drive down winding roads

That lead me far away from home

Than have to wait at these red lights

I have to be on the go all of the time

Now I look in the streets

And the lights from the city

Waving down cars but they

Won't even stop for me

I always somehow

End up in the driver's seat

I'll drive them miles but

They won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

So I'll drive down Jefferson Avenue

All alone 'cause I'm tired of being used

And I'll head down Illinois 59

Hoping I get their names out of my mind

'Cause I'll drive them miles but they won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

Now I look in the streets

And the lights from the city

Waving down cars but they

Won't even stop for me

I always somehow

End up in the driver's seat

I'll drive them miles but

They won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

No they won't do the same for me

They won't do the same for me

I know I don't belong here anymore

Or anywhere

So I drove miles and miles to find

Comfort somewhere

'Cause they just weren't there for me
