FAST ENOUGH

Winter has arrived with snow blowing through the trees
My hands are so cold and numb I can barely hold my keys
My cell phone is dead and I don’t have an ounce of change
Feeling so out-of-reach is just too damn strange

Our baby’s got a fever and honey, you have a nagging cold
There’s traffic on the highway, on the ice a big rig has rolled
If there’s one more damn delay, I swear I’ll be seeing blue
In this weather I can’t drive fast enough getting home to you

I can usually drive fast on this road this time of day
Whatever there is traffic on the road it goes the other way
But this storm has been a real bear for the county snow plow crew
In this weather I can’t drive fast enough getting home to you

The power lines are holding strong and the lights are staying on
If you had your own way, baby I never would’ve been gone
Keep my dinner warm love, because my workday’s finally through
Still, in this weather I can’t drive fast enough getting home to you

I’m feeling right at ease when I finally see our home
Although my workday called me away, I wish you weren’t left alone
But the baby’s sleeping in your arms and she doesn’t have a clue
That Daddy couldn’t drive fast enough getting home to you

I can usually drive fast on this road this time of day
Whatever there is traffic on the road it goes the other way
But this storm has been a real bear for the county snow plow crew
In this weather I can’t drive fast enough getting home to you…

In this weather I can’t drive fast enough getting home to you…
