Seven Miles an Hour - Marshall Crenshaw

Well I’ve got a new job in a gray office tower

And I’m stuck here for around another hour

Wearing a dark frown

Watching the second hand go 'round

When I can I’ll leave without hesitation

And make my way on to a better destination

Racing the daylight

Back to where I was last night

Going seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour burnin' the ground

Cause I’ve got a good thing waiting way across town

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

The sidewalk’s jammed up Now I wanna move in a hurry

Have I found an angel?

Well I think she might be If there ever was one

Can’t just walk, I’ve got to run

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour burnin' the ground

Well I gotta good thing waiting way across town

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Racing the daylight

Back to where I was last night

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour burnin' the ground

Cause I got a good thing waiting way across town

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour can’t slow down

Seven miles an hour…
