Verse1:
Behind this steering wheel, and through this windshield
The view just stays the same

Even though there's blue skies, I gotta wonder why
I feel like I'm headed the wrong way


I'm just trying to make us a living, riding broncs for all I've got
But I'm ready, to hang it up now,
And try stayin' in one spot


Chorus:
This highway can go on forever

Take you farther than you really need to go,
But I've been too gone, for much too long
Lonesome highway lead me home


Verse2:
The next 8 seconds, keeps getting longer

When I'm 500 miles from you
The last time I nodded, is gonna be the last time,
And this time I mean it, baby I'm through


This pickup truck just don't drive fast enough, To get me there in decent time,
So darlin', just leave the light on

I should be home before midnight

Bridge:

Like a river keeps on rolling, that fog line keeps going to where I wish I knew
But now I clearly see, what matters most to me is that the roads all lead to you


Chorus
