Direct Hit! - Home to You lyrics

[Verse] Well they locked me up and they threw me away And the one comfort I would let myself take was that someday I'd get out, and I would make it home to you So when the guards spoke up saying on the PA We had an hour, or less til we're all blown away I took the first chance that I got and headed for the parking lot [Chorus] Cause if I only got to see you for a minute or two Well it would all be worth my time Nothing mattered more, 2, 3, 4 wouldn't have crossed my mind Oh sh**, I think we'd better check the time [Verse] Pedal on the floor, a single thought in my head: With the a-bombs a-falling it's all good in the end Just to hold you, if only for a minute or two So with a quarter tank of gas, and just a second to spare I swear to god the clock stopped, our gaze hung in the air And I will hold you, even as the world blows up [Chorus] Now I only get to see you for a minute or two But yeah it's all been worth my time Nothing matters more, 2, 3, 4 Everything feels just fine [Bridge] As the sky fell down, the voice inside of my head Should've said "run, run away," But at The End it kept quiet, f**ing quiet at last So in the background it'll stay [Verse] Cause I only got to see you for a minute or two But damn, it all was worth my time Nothing mattered more, 2, 3, 4 wouldn't have crossed my mind Oh sh**, I think we just ran out of time
