Lyrics
I had to escape, the city was getting too cruel
The singer felt the need to leave the harshness of the city.
Maybe I should have called you first, but I was dying to get to you
The singer impulsively chose not to call someone before heading towards them.
I was dreaming as I drove the long straight road ahead
The singer daydreamed while driving along a straight road.
The taste of your kisses, your arms open wide
The memory of the taste of kisses and the warmth of an embrace.
This fever for you is just burning me up inside
An intense longing or desire for the person is causing emotional turmoil.
I drove all night to get to you
The singer made a significant effort, driving through the night to reach the person.
Is that alright, I drove all night
Seeking confirmation if the effort was acceptable or appreciated.
Crept in your room, to wake you from your sleep
The singer entered the person's room, possibly to surprise them.
To make love to you, I drove all night
Expressing the purpose of the journey was to share intimacy with the person.
What in the world keeps us from tearing apart
Reflecting on challenges that threaten the relationship.
No matter where I go I hear your voice inside my heart
The persistent presence of the person's voice in the singer's thoughts.
It's calling me home, pulling me through the dark
The person's influence acts as a guiding force in difficult times.
Nothing can move me the way that you do
Highlighting the unique and powerful impact of the person on the singer.
It reaches across any distance between me and you
Emphasizing the ability of the connection to transcend physical distance.
I drove all night to get to you
Reiteration of the effort made to reach the person.
Is that alright, I drove all night
Asking for confirmation if the journey was appreciated.
Crept in your room, to wake you from your sleep
Repeating the act of entering the person's room, possibly for intimacy.
To make love to you, is that alright
Confirming the intention to make love and seeking approval.
I drove all night
Reaffirmation of the determination to reach the person through the night.
I drove all night
Repetition for emphasis on the commitment and effort to reach the person.
I drove all night
-I drove all night
