Lyrics

Highway 57, it's the middle of the night
I bet she's sprawled out on her bed, silhouette in the TV light
We never really said goodbye, it just worked out that way
I kissed her lips for one last time and just walked away
No I didn't treat her well, the way that she deserved
Looking back I'd call it love, but I never found the words
The sign ways Champaign 90 and Chicago 213
When I get to where I'm going, I hope there's something left of me
Car pulls in the driveway then it disappears
A broken hearted lover sheds one final tear
Scarecrows judge and jury... staring down my soul
Pierces thru the armor, cuts down to the bone
I've got time to think about my life and the choices that I've made
On this solitary highway, there's no one else to blame
It's flatter than a counter top and the sky's as black as coal
I can't see those golden cornfields, there's nothing here but road
Car pulls in the driveway then it disappears
A broken hearted lover sheds one final tear
Scarecrows judge and jury... staring down my soul
Pierces thru the armor, cuts down to the bone
I see her in my rear view mirror, I feel her in my veins
I push my foot down on the pedal, but I can't get away
Stumbling down this interstate, nothing's really clear
But I know for sure what's done-is-done, it can never be repaired
Car pulls in the driveway then it disappears
A broken hearted lover sheds one final tear
Scarecrows judge and jury... staring down my soul
Pierces thru the armor, cuts down to the bone
