Fred Eaglesmith - Here's The Keys lyrics

rate me

Well it sure is good to see you gal

And you sure are looking fine

I hardly recognized you

It's been such a long time

The last time that I saw you

You were cruising down the line

With some new heart I guess you broke

And then you set aside

Are you looking for a new one to just drive

Here's the keys

Take mine

Well I know your reputation gal

And frankly it's a drag

I know you've broken every single heart

You've ever had

You say you're going around the block

But then you drive around the bend

And you twist and turn and crash and burn

Until there's nothing left of them

But I think this time

You'll be surprised

Here's the keys

Take mine

Well at 50 miles an hour, gal, I'm barely getting going

At 85 I think that you'll find I'm starting to turn on

At a hundred and ten, little darlin', then if you think you're there

Take 'er up another notch and see if you get scathed

You might want to settle back and let me drive

Here's the keys

Take mine

Well, my heart's crashed into every wall

On every single track

It's come off the line of fire

Just to be towed back

I've had it tuned and I've had it timed

And I've had it checked and checked

And Darlin' I don't think you're going to believe the ride you'll get

So if you really want to fall in love this time

Here's the keys

Take mine
