“Drive” uses pop-culture references to describe a relationship that keeps going around in circles, leaving the narrator with the desire to leave.
It was the 12th track released by London-based writing duo Oh Wonder during their quest to release one song every month for a year in anticipation of the...
[Verse 1]
Sat back with the window down
Eighty an hour and the radio loud
The same songs with the same old rhymes
Tell me to shake it off and swing from the lights
[Pre-Chorus]
But I can't help but drive away from all the mess you made
You sent this hurricane, now it won't go away
And I promised I'd be there, but you don't make it easy
Darling, please believe me
[Chorus]
'Cause lovin' you, lovin' you is too hard
All I do, all I do is not enough
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
Lovin' you, lovin' you leaves me hurt
All I do, all I do is get burned
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
[Verse 2]
Count stacks of the routine lies
Funny how easy you could see my blindside
Still the same songs with the same old beats
Sure, I could stay, but there's a place I'd rather be
[Pre-Chorus]
And I can't help but drive away from all the mess you made
You sent this hurricane, now it won't go away
And I promised I'd be there, but you don't make it easy
Darling, please believe me
[Chorus]
'Cause lovin' you, lovin' you is too hard
All I do, all I do is not enough
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
Lovin' you, lovin' you leaves me hurt
All I do, all I do is get burned
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
[Bridge]
See, I remember all the times you made me covered in crazy
I can't forget about the way you played me
Like I was never gonna change your world
It ended long ago, so please just let me go
It ended long ago, so please just let me go
[Chorus]
'Cause lovin' you, lovin' you is too hard
All I do, all I do is not enough
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
Lovin' you, lovin' you leaves me hurt
All I do, all I do is get burned
Lovin' you, lovin' you
I cannot be lovin' you, lovin' you
[Outro]
Lovin' you, lovin' you
All I do, all I do
Lovin' you, lovin' you
Lovin' you, lovin' you
Drive was written by Anthony West & Josephine Vander Gucht.
Drive was produced by Anthony West & Josephine Vander Gucht.
In an interview, the duo said
“Drive” is the classic break-up song but is written about the drive home after you’ve done the deed. It’s a deeply sad song that is trying to justify why you’ve left someone, but we disguised it in uplifting pop production and glorious strings to balance out the sorrow...
