fields I watch the highways rolling by A wave to passengers that don't ask why It won't take long to get me there I want a life away from anywhere I hung on every word coming from her mouth lost in the fields as I'm heading for the deep south blazing rays of bright sunshine to think that it's been only 6 days since you were mine Well I just think I'll lose my head Every time I remember what you said I'm scared to think back on our day I got no idea what it is that I'm supposed to say I saw the beauty in your eyes A thousand worlds all left behind And knowing that you loved me too And everything that you and I have ever been through If we turn it on again We won't know which way why or when I hear you urgin' me to speed You think about the hunger that we're gonna feed as I'm Coming up to exit forty- five I'm feeling dead inside but I never really felt so alive And I can never go back there again Not after everywhere that you and I have just been I'm riding right up to the ledge And looking down over the edge I'm seeing things I never seen feel like a junkie finally getting clean And if I turn it on again I know I'll lose my only friend But now I feel it coming on You know that wicked ride that we both love bein' on...
