I’ve been chasing down the highway Windows down, the night’s still warm Radio’s a little static, but it feels like home Once more Every mile’s a question, every turn’s a Chance to find Something better than the leaving Something steadier in time I keep on running where the daylight goes Chasing something that I can’t let go If the night gets cold, I’ll be fine, I know As long as I’m still following the road Following the road As long as I’m still following the road You left your words like matches, sparks I Couldn’t hold too long Now the fire’s just a whisper, but it taught Me to be strong Love’s a lesson written messy, on the back Of barroom signs But I’m learning how to read it, one slow Letter at a time And the stars are hanging heavy, like they Know the weight I keep But the sky don’t hold a grudge, it just lays Me down to sleep Down to sleep I keep on running where the daylight goes Chasing something that I can’t let go If the night gets cold, I’ll be fine, I know As long as I’m still following the road Following the road As long as I’m still following the road And the wind keeps telling secrets, through The cracks in every fence Guess the truth was always simple: leaving Don’t mean no offense
