All she's asking is for a little more time,   To walk away from his anger and leave the bruises far behind   She won't talk about it...she's made up her mind   But as the front door shuts behind her she whispers "give me a sign."      Feels the power of the engine as she climbs to 65   Every piston sounds like freedom, every white line says goodbye   She'll find strength in her anger and the truth in his lies   When the last scar finally fades she'll have a new life      Say goodbye to Mr. Right   Lock the door, turn out the light   Pack your bags, leave this trap   Run away, don't look back   See another day with each new sun   Your life has just begun      She can still feel the touch of his hand   Not just the violence but the warmth of her man      The night she never felt so alive   even though it feels so cold outside   It's the first time I've ever seen her smile.
