Lines on the Highway

Light on the highway

It gets a little heavy, I know

Whipping by, like the nights and days

Yeah, I'm ready to get home

Been a while since we stopped to smell the roses

Been a while since we shared an easy smile

Been a while since we sat and drank somewhere until it closes

And when we pass through Myers Flat, I stop counting the miles

We keep on riding, it's gonna just rain a little

Can't blame the sky on a cloudy day

There's no use crying when you're stuck in the middle

On the way back to where we came

Take me back, Lord, to where we came

Time, only standing

Still, for those that wait

Maybe time is all we need

To wash these blues away

If we'd have known what we had to learn the hard way

If I'd have did all the things I wish I'd done

You and I always were alike, we had to have it our way

Didn't they say you won't know what you got until it's gone?

We keep on riding, it's gonna just rain a little

Can't blame the sky on a cloudy day

There's no use crying when you're stuck in the middle

On the way back from where we came

Rolling across cold barbed miles

As the light turns shades of grey, yeah

I see the truth in your husky smile

No, there's nothing left to say

Just keep on riding, it's gonna just rain a little

Can't blame the sky on a cloudy day

There's no use crying when you're stuck in the middle

On the way back to where we came, yeah

Just take me back, Lord, to where we came

Take me back, Lord, to where we came
