Somewhere along Route 66...

 

"My love is the miles and the waiting

The eyes that just stare, and the glance at the clock

And the secret that burns, and the pain that won't stop

And its fuel is the years

Leading me on – leading me down the road

Driving beyond – driving me down the road

 

My love is exceeding the limit

Red-eyed and fevered with the hum of the miles

Distance and longing, my thoughts do collide

Should I rest for a while at the side

Your love is cradled in knowing

Eyes in the mirror, still expecting they'll come

Sensing too well when the journey is done

There is no turning back – no

There is no turning back – on the run

 

My love is in league with the freeway

Oh the freeway, and the coming of night-time

My love

My love is in league with the freeway..."
