THE DRIVER Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hot like summer
Give me eyes, then twist the knife
Put me under your spell
Then hide the crime

[Pre-Chorus]
Bare your soul 'til it's naked
Bite my lip 'til you break it
Steal my heart, get it wasted
Don't do it slow

[Chorus]
If you're gonna set fire to the night
Baby, let me be the lighter
If you're already high and you wanna fly
I'll be the hit that takes you higher
If you wanna love when you touch the sky
You can be my midnight rider
If there's nowhere to go and you wanna go wild
I wanna be the driver

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Make me helpless
Tie me down and use your rope
Made of velvet
Then turn the lights down low
[Pre-Chorus]
Bare your soul 'til it's naked
Bite my lip 'til you break it
Steal my heart, get it wasted
Don't do it slow

[Chorus]
If you're gonna set fire to the night
Baby, let me be the lighter
If you're already high and you wanna fly
I'll be the hit that takes you higher
If you wanna love when you touch the sky
You can be my midnight rider
If there's nowhere to go and you wanna go wild
I wanna be the driver

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
If you're gonna set fire to the night
Baby, let me be the lighter
If you're already high and you wanna fly
I'll be the hit that takes you higher
If you wanna love when you touch the sky
You can be my midnight rider
If there's nowhere to go and you wanna go wild
I wanna be the driver

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
