Tell me where'd the day go
I'm lying awake wondering
How it escaped, the sun got away

Lately there's a part of me
Thinking soon enough I'll be
Ten more years old the next thing I know

PRE-CHORUS
Well I'm not about to let that happen
Call me drastic and old-fashioned

CHORUS
I think it's time that we take a drive down the scenic route
Baby sitting round here talking bout, well it doesn't count
Can we slow down and just take our time?
Close our eyes and just enjoy the ride

I remember last year
I told myself, "Take every picture
And chance like each day was my last."

Well it's easy saying things like that
But life has got a way
Of distracting your dreams and handing you worries

PRE-CHORUS
Well I'm not about to let that happen
Call me drastic and old-fashioned

CHORUS
I think it's time that we set our sights on the here and now
Baby sitting round here talking bout, well it doesn't count
Can we slow down and just take our time?
Close our eyes and just enjoy the ride
Oh, just enjoy the ride (oh, oh)

Well I think it's time that we take a drive down the scenic route
Baby sitting round here talking bout, well it doesn't count
Can we slow down and just take our time?
Oh well slow down and just take our time
Close our eyes and just enjoy the ride
And just enjoy the ride
Just enjoy the ride
Oh-h, yeah just enjoy the ride
Oh-h, well just enjoy the ride
