Overdrive

Verse

Six a.m. and the kettle's singing

Sun comes up through the kitchen blinds

You're still here in my grey sweater

Stealing all of the covers, stealing all of my time

Toast is burning, I don't care much

Coffee's cold but your laugh runs hot

Every window's wide open

Every excuse that I had, I forgot

Pre-Chorus

So what's this feeling climbing in my chest

Speeding past every yellow light I know

Tell me how you got me second-guessing

Every reason I had to go slow

Chorus

You got me running on overdrive

Heart's in the red but I don't mind

Foot on the gas, no brakes in sight

Falling for you at the speed of light

Windows down, radio alive

Baby you got me in overdrive

Verse

Sidewalk chalk and a paper napkin

Numbers scribbled in blue ink

Three weeks now and I'm still smiling

Like a fool at every red light on the strip

You send me songs at midnight

I play them driving to work

Something about the way you say my name

Turns the ignition, sends me into a swerve

Pre-Chorus

So what's this feeling climbing in my chest

Speeding past every yellow light I know

Tell me how you got me second-guessing

Every reason I had to go slow

Chorus

You got me running on overdrive

Heart's in the red but I don't mind

Foot on the gas, no brakes in sight

Falling for you at the speed of light

Windows down, radio alive

Baby you got me in overdrive

Bridge

Maybe I don't need the brakes at all

Maybe crashing into you's the point

Every mile marker says your name

Every green light feels like your voice

So I'm not slowing, not this time

Not when you're riding shotgun by my side

Chorus

You got me running on overdrive

Heart's in the red but I don't mind

Foot on the gas, no brakes in sight

Falling for you at the speed of light

Windows down, radio alive

Baby you got me in overdrive

Overdrive
