Settle For A Slowdown

I must look just like a fool Here in the middle of the road Standin' there in your rearview And gettin' soaked to the bone This land is flat as it is mean A man can see for a hundred miles So I'm still praying I might see The glow of a brake light But your wheels just turn down the road ahead If it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet I keep a lookin' for the slightest sign That you might miss what you left behind I know there's nothing stopping you now But I'd settle for a slowdown I held on longer then I should Leaving you might change your mind And those bright lights of Hollywood Would fade in time But your wheels just turn down the road ahead If it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet I keep a lookin' for the slightest sign That you might miss what you left behind I know there's nothing stopping you now But I'd settle for a slowdown But your wheels just turn down the road ahead If it hurts at all you ain't showed it yet You're just a tiny dot on that horizon line Come on tap those brakes baby just one time I know there's nothing stopping you now I'm not asking you to turn back around I'd settle for a slowdown Come on just slow down I'd settle for a slowdown
