Straight Line Lyrics

Why we livin’ every day in circles
Just burnin’ out, burnin’ out
I don’t wanna just go through the motions
Goin’ round and round
It’s takin’ us down

I ain’t buyin’ this life’s gotta be such a mother
‘Cause we kinda got it all when we got each other
You and me used to be like a year-round summer
Let’s go back
Oh, hit the gas

In a straight line, baby
Hey, whatcha say we’re never gonna look back now?
Can’t you see the sun shinin’?
You and me drivin’ out from under this dark cloud
I wanna know what they mean
When they say life’s a dream
Shouldn’t we be dreamin’ it too?
In a straight line, baby
Startin’ now, takin’ a straight line
Straight into forever with you
Yeah, with you

Finally leaving Hotel California
Couple runaways in a getaway car
Remember when this kinda high was us, babe?
I wanna feel that way
I wanna feel that way now

Let’s trade the past in the fading rearview
For the good life comin’ in the windshield clearview
Anywhere, girl, you wanna disappear to
I wanna go there too
I wanna go there with you, yeah

In a straight line, baby
Hey, whatcha say we’re never gonna look back now?
Can’t you see the sun shinin’?
You and me drivin’ out from under this dark cloud
I wanna know what they mean
When they say life’s a dream
Shouldn’t we be dreamin’ it too?
In a straight line, baby
Startin’ now, takin’ a straight line
Straight into forever with you

I ain’t buyin’ this life’s gotta be such a mother
‘Cause we kinda got it all when we got each other
You and me used to be like a year-round summer
Let’s go back
Let’s go back, hit the gas

In a straight line, baby
Hey, whatcha say we’re never gonna look back now?
Can’t you see the sun shinin’?
You and me drivin’ out from under this dark cloud

In a straight line
Straight line, straight into forever
Oh, baby
Straight into forever
You’ve been a straight line
Straight line, straight into forever
Straight into forever

I ain’t buyin’ this life’s gotta be such a mother
Straight line, straight line
‘Cause we kinda got it all when we got each other
Straight into forever, straight into forever
You and me used to be like a year-round summer
Straight line, straight line
Let’s go back
Straight into forever
