Drive By - Pat Deville

On the other side of a street I knew

Stood a girl that looked like you

I guess that’s déjà vu

But I thought this can’t be true

Cause you moved to west L.A. or New York or Santa Fe

Or wherever to get away from me

Oh but that one night

Was more than just right

I didn’t leave you cause I was all through

Oh I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell

Because I really fell for you

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by

Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply

Hefty bag to hold my love

When you move me everything is groovy

They don’t like it sue me

The way you do me

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by

On the other side of a downward spiral

My love for you went viral

And I loved you every mile you drove away

But now here you are again

So let’s skip the «How you been?»

And get down to the «more than friends» at last

Oh but that one night was still the highlight

I didn’t need you until I came to

And I was overwhelmed and frankly scared as hell

Because I really fell for you

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by

Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply

Hefty bag to hold my love

When you move me everything is groovy

They don’t like it sue me

The way you do me

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by

Please believe that when I leave

There’s nothing up my sleeve but love for you

And a little time to get my head together too

On the other side of a street I knew

Stood a girl that looked like you

I guess that’s déjà vu

But I thought this can’t be true

Cause…

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by

Just a shy guy looking for a 2-ply

Hefty bag to hold my love

When you move me everything is groovy

They don’t like it sue me

The way you do me

Oh I swear to ya

I’ll be there for ya

This is not a drive by
