Lyric Surviver

10CC - Surviver

This boy he s a midnight driver
High roller and a soul survivor
She tried to send him on his way
He say, hey, I wanna stay
If you don t mind I m hanging around

This girl s on the road to nowhere
She wouldn t say but another day there
It s not the role she s decided to play
She say, hey, don t wanna stay
There s no reason for hanging around

Take me where I wanna go running
Where the sea rushes up to the shore
It s a lonely place but I need the space
Want to let my feelings soar
Help me find the key to my prison
I ve waited long enough to be free
I love you but I m not really living
It s now how I want it to be

Listen, I know what she s like she s just a dreamer
But I ll win in the end I m a schemer
Give her time she ll be on the phone
She s never gonna make it alone
Better leave the door on the latch
She ll soon be hurrying home
Oh Mother, it looks like I m in for stormy weather
So I d better get my story together
Got to make it good she s no fool
I ll take her in my arms, I ll be cool
Don t want to get her upset
I wanna make her forget

Take me where I wanna go running
Where the sea rushes up to the shore
It s a lonely place but I need the space
Want to let my feelings soar
Help me find the key to my prison
I ve waited long enough to be free
I love you but I m not really living
It s now how I want it to be

This girl s she s a real survivor
She don t believe in the midnight driver
So she s starting a brand new day
She say, hey, don t wanna play
It had to stop, so I m going away
I m going away
I m going away
