jerri broke away from the bleedin' line
screaming I'm not stoppin', not wasting time
jerri broke away from all reason she should stay
jerri left the weight of her yielding eyes
in the rearview with the exit signs
jerri left the weight of all reasons she should stay

CH

and the wheel turns away
over the consequences paved
wheel turn away
you've got the one thing you can save
you better turn around

jerri broke away from the bleedin' line
singing I'm not letting in this time
you never wanted me so badly then
never wanted nothing, but the reason
I can't leave is all I have and
all the reason I should leave
I could reason, and you could reason
and we could live in lonely treason
now, lay it down, lay it down
if I can heed it and you can need it
we can love it enough to leave it, now
lay it down, lay it down

CH

and the wheel turns away
over the consequences paved
wheel turn away
you've got to listen
you've got to listen
to the one thing you can save..

wheelspin
wheelspin
we'll spin away...
