about

A song about life on the road.

lyrics

Hello moon. Hello stars.
And hello to the people waiting for me in the bars
As I pull, yet again, into a city that I've never really seen.

One more town. One more show.
One more night inside a smoky room, trying to find the flow,
And one more drink to help convince myself that it's all part of me living the dream.

The days, they seem to creep along behind me while I sleep
And the nights are diamonds in my eyes.
The days, they seem to creep along behind me while I sleep
But the years, they roll on by.

And it's one more hotel breakfast, and it's one more telephoned kiss.
And it's one more day of selling yourself and it's the little freedoms you miss.
And sometimes it doesn't seem worth it, all the emptiness that you feel.
Sometimes the things you remember aren't always the things that are real...

Goodbye moon. Goodby stars.
And goodbye to the people dying slowly in the bars as I lay down my head in a city I've still never really seen.
I'll be gone tomorrow, one more traveler on the highway, one more town and one more show
And I'll drive off toward the horizon, to the coastline, and to all points in between.

The days, they seem to creep along behind me while I sleep
And the nights are diamonds in my eyes.
The days, they seem to creep along behind me while I sleep
But the years, they roll on by.
