Cruise Control Lyrics - Singles - Bruce Hornsby

It's been a long time coming 

This feeling I've got 

That things'll always go your way 

Such a long shot 

Been so deep in the hole 

Thought I'd never come out 

Anything can happen 

Oh, I know that now, hey 

One slip, one fall 

A turn of the head can change it all 

A step ahead, a step behind 

A blink of an eye at the wrong time 

North, south, east, and west 

Spin the wheel and hope for the best 

No regrets and it's on we roll 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control 

Walk tall, anywhere you go 

Wheels roll, and the whistle will blow 

Many miles, oh, I may roam 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control, hey 

He was holding on, he trusted me 

Then he slipped away 

He fell hard and now 

I've just got myself to blame 

When he smiled at me finally 

Oh, I came around 

You can't worry, you never know 

So don't beat yourself down 

One slip, one fall 

A turn of the head can change it all 

A step ahead, a step behind 

A blink of an eye at the wrong time 

North, south, east, and west 

Spin the wheel and hope for the best 

No regrets and it's on we roll 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control 

Walk tall anywhere you go 

Wheels roll and the whistle will blow 

Many miles, oh I may roam 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control 

In my darkest hour, my longest day 

Oh, my mind was a prison 

I could feel it taking me down to stay 

Then I said, "Forget this 

It's out of your hands, anyway" 

North, south, east, and west 

Spin the wheel and hope for the best 

Many miles oh I may roam 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control 

Wheels roll and the whistle will blow 

Walk tall anywhere you go 

No regrets and it's on we roll 

Put it in drive, set the cruise control, hey 

Hey, put it in drive and set the cruise control 

Oh where I'll go I just don't know 

Pick myself up and roll, roll 

Up ahead, I can't see at all 

Take it slow, let the cards fall
