Highway Dreams

Packed my suitcase with Polaroid ghosts Last glance at the porch light still glow Rearview mirror full of hometown snow But the engine hums a brighter tone Windows down hair wild and free Radio plays our old melody Foot on the gas no more maybe Highway dreams take me far away Where the sky meets the road in a golden ballet I’m leaving the shadows chasing the sun A new chapter’s waiting this ride’s just begun Oh these wheels keep spinning like a heart set free No more looking back just you and me The horizon’s calling with a neon gleam Highway dreams highway dreams Diner lights flicker like distant stars Coffee cup stains on the map of my scars Singing along to the static choir Miles turn the past into fire Wind in my lungs taste like liberty White lines blur into symmetry No destination just you and me Highway dreams take me far away Where the sky meets the road in a golden ballet I’m leaving the shadows chasing the sun A new chapter’s waiting this ride’s just begun Oh these wheels keep spinning like a heart set free No more looking back just you and me The horizon’s calling with a neon gleam Highway dreams highway dreams Maybe the asphalt knows my name Whispering through the window frame Every turn’s a chance to changeTail lights fade but the feeling stays Highway dreams in a sunset haze
