Cruise Control

Hot House

B. r. hornsby

It's been a long time coming, this feeling i've got
That things'll always go your way, such a long shot
Been so deep in the hole, never thought i'd come out
Anything can happen, i know that now

One slip, one fall
A turn of the head can change it all
A step ahead, a step behind
A blink of an eye at the wrong time

North, south, east & west
Spin the wheel & hope for the best
No regrets & it's on we roll
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

Walk tall & away you go
Wheels roll & the whistle will blow
Many miles oh i may roam
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

He was holding on, he trusted me, then he slipped away
He fell hard & now i've just got myself to blame
When he smiled at me finally i came around
You can't worry, you never know so don't beat yourself down

One slip, one fall
A turn of the head can change it all
A step ahead, a step behind
A blink of an eye at the wrong time

North, south, east & west
Spin the wheel & hope for the best
No regrets & it's on we roll
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

Walk tall & away you go
Wheels roll & the whistle will blow
Many miles oh i may roam
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

In my darkest hour, my longest day
Oh my mind was a prison
I could feel it taking me down to stay
Then i said "forget this", it's out of your hands anyway

North, south, east & west
Spin the wheel & hope for the best
Many miles oh i may roam
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

Wheels roll & the whistle will blow
Walk tall & away you go
No regrets & it's on we roll
Put it in drive & set the cruise control

Put it in drive & set the cruise control

Oh where i go i'll go i just don't know
Pick myself up & roll, roll
Up ahead can't see it all
Take it slow, let the cards fall
