Settle For A Slowdown

I must look just like a fool, here in the middle of the road, Standin' there in your rear view, gettin' soaked to the bone This land is flat as it is mean, a man can see for a hundred miles So I'm still prayin' I might see, the glow of a brake light [Chorus:] But your wheels just turn, down the road ahead If it hurts at all, you ain't showed it yet I keep lookin' for the slightest sign That you might miss, what you left behind I know there's nothin' stopping you now But I'd settle for a slowdown I held on longer than I should, believin' you might change your mind And those bright lights of Hollywood, would fade in time [Chorus] But your wheels just turn, down the road ahead If it hurts at all, you ain't showed it yet You're just a tiny dot, on that horizon line Come on tap those brakes, baby just one time I know there's nothin' stoppin' you now I'm not asking you to turn back around I'd settle for a slowdown Come on just slowdown I'd settle for a slowdown
