Racecars lyrics

i met this girl the other day
sitting alone on the wednesday train
i said, "what`s wrong? you look so sad."

she said she`s got something inside
that she`s not willing to confide
so i said, "could i give some free advice?"

"don`t worry bout your problems now, baby,
cause it just don`t matter when it comes down to the fact.
everybody`s got problems now, baby,
and life`s too short to keep them bottled up inside."

cause i know
that life is like a racecar speeding down this one way street
that`ll go
anyway
it feels like heaven down this one way street
cause i know
everything will be fine

i met this guy the other day
sitting alone on the sunday train
dressed up with nowhere left to go

he said, "if there`s one thing that i`ve learned,
through all these cigarettes i`ve burned,
you`ve got to stop and look around."

he said that hindsight`s clearer than a crystal ball
if he had a chance to stop and do it all over again
cause when you`re waiting for the sounds of the gavel
you don`t want it to end with a fistfull of regrets inside

cause i know
that life is like a racecar speeding down this one way street
that`ll go
anyway
it feels like heaven down this one way street
cause i know
everything will be fine

cause i know
that life is like a racecar speeding down this one way street
that`ll go
anyway
it feels like heaven down this one way street
cause i know
that life is like a racecar speeding down this one way street
that`ll go
anyway
it feels like heaven down this one way street
cause i know
everything will be fine
