Everything I own in the back of this car,
Gas tank half empty, might not get far.
But I gotta go as far as I can get from here.
Drive until my head starts to clear.
You said we’d take the world by storm.
When it got cold, keep each other warm.
Hand in hand, nothing we couldn’t do.
I wish to God that had been true.
God, give these wheels wings,
To outrun all those shattered dreams.
Let my heart fly so high,
Let the rain fall from the sky,
So I don’t have to see what’s left behind.
God, give these wheels wings.
Radio blarin all those sad old songs.
Bout love and lies and done me wrongs.
I sing along to keep the tears at bay.
Bang my hand on the steering wheel and pray.
God give these wheels wings,
To outrun all those shattered dreams.
Let my heart fly so high,
Let the rain fall from the sky.
So I don’t have to see what’s left behind.
God, give these wheels wings.
I’ve gone too far to turn back now.
I’ll get by somehow.
You always said sometimes love isn’t enough.
Getting that through my head was just a little tough.
God, give these wheels wings,
To outrun all those shattered dreams.
Let my heart fly so high,
Let the rain fall from the sky.
So I don’t have to see what’s left behind.
God, give these wheels wings.

One day X, when you are a well known and respected songwriter to the stars of country music, I will be able to say with pride "I knew her when she was just starting out!".
You go girl!
