I slammed the door a thousand times
What's mine is mine
What's yours is mine
It's a long drive uphill
Sit back I'm taking the wheel

So many highs so many lows
You move too quick to ever show
Exactly how you feel
So I'm takin' the wheel

[Chorus]
Everybody says it can't be done
We drive each other crazy but 
You're still the one
You make it hard to stay
Harder to run

You and me we're quite a pair
We make a mess out of thin air
You know I love you still 
But I'm takin' the wheel

[Chorus]

It's a knock-down drag-out fight
Tongue-tied and twisted we can go all night
You're comin' with me and here's the deal
Baby slide on over
I'm takin' the wheel

So many roads we're left to take
So much history to make
We bend but we don't break

[Chorus]

It's a knock-down drag-out fight
Tongue-tied and twisted we can go all night
You're comin' with me and here's the deal
Baby slide on over

And leavin' this crazy tug-of-war
Only makes me want you more
You're comin' with me that's how I feel
Baby slide on over
I'm takin' the wheel

Oh yeah

I slammed the door a thousand times
What's mine is mine
What's yours is mine
It's a long drive uphill
Sit back I'm taking the wheel
