My words are wrapped in barbwire My actions speak for what I can't say 'Cause I fall one step forward To push you away, push you away I wish that I could listen To all the advice that I give away But it's hard to see things clearly Through all of the pain, all of the pain I'm caught in the rain, caught in the rain And my heart's too drunk to drive I should stay away from you tonight But in this blackout state of mind Baby all I want is you tonight When my head tells me "no" My heart tells me "go" So I'm hitting in the road 'cause I I know my heart's too drunk to drive But I'm on my way to you Yeah, I'm on my way To you, you, to you tonight I'm on my way to you, you To you, I'm on my way Yeah there's a million voices Screaming that this love's a dead-end road But the only voice that I hear Is telling me "go", telling me "go" The sun is rising sober While passion fades and I'm on my own My helpless heart's hangover I'm all out of hope, all out of hope Where do we go? Where do we go? Cause my heart's too drunk to drive I should stay away from you tonight But in this blackout state of mind Baby all I want is you tonight When my head tells me "no" My heart tells me "go" So I'm hitting the road 'cause I I know my heart's too drunk to drive But I'm on my way to you Yeah, I'm on my way To you, you, to you tonight I'm on my way to you, you To you, I'm on my way And no one's words can stop me I'm past the point of no return No matter how it hurts me I'm running to you, running to you And my heart's too drunk to drive I should stay away from you tonight But in this blackout state of mind Baby all I want is you tonight When my head tells me "no" My heart tells me "go" So I'm hitting the road 'cause I I know my heart's too drunk to drive But I'm on my way to you Yeah, I'm on my way To you, you, to you tonight I'm on my way to you, you To you, I'm on my way to you
