Lyrics

Going 75 on the wrong side
And you were just laughing
As my hands were shaking
Shifting through the gears
 
We were strangers in a new land
With accents they didn’t understand
I’ll never forget first time behind the wheel
 
You and I, carving the countryside
So alive, and terrified at the same time
Scared and excited, falling and flying
Driving in Ireland
 
One part whiskey, two parts wanderlust
Dublin dug the truth right out of us
Half a world away
We took a stand that cloudy day
With cobblestone streets to keep our secret safe
 
You and I, carving the countryside
So alive, and terrified at the same time
Scared and excited, falling and flying
Driving in Ireland
 
Now with the baby on the way
They ask me how I feel
And all I know to say
Is I’m scared, I’m excited
Feels like falling, and it feels like flying
It feels like driving in Ireland
 
You and I, carving the countryside
So alive, and terrified at the same time
Scared and excited, falling and flying
It feels like driving in Ireland
Driving in Ireland
