Long way from home

The road rolls on beneath my wheels
Dust rising like a ghost behind
I chase the Sun, I chase what heals
But leave a piece of me each time

I've seen the stars from motel beds
And heard my name in things unsaid
I'm a long way from home, but I still believe
In the love I lost and the life I lead

Every mile I drive, every song I play
Takes me closer or further away
I carry the fire, I carry the ache
I'm a long way from home, but I won't break

The signs all blur, the towns all fade
But something in me stays the same
I wear the roads that I have made
Like lines that spell out my own name

I've seen the stars from motel beds
And heard my name in things unsaid
I'm a long way from home, but I still believe
In the love I lost and the life I lead

Every mile I drive, every song I play
Takes me closer or further away
I carry the fire, I carry the ache
I'm a long way from home, but I won't break

Let the wind write what I've known
On every road I've called my own
I'm a long way from home, but I still believe
In the love I lost and the life I lead

Every mile I drive, every song I play
Takes me closer or further away
I carry the fire, I carry the ache
I'm a long way from home, but I won't break
