Lyrics

I SAW HER SITTIN ON HER SUITCASE
OUTSIDE TERMINAL FOUR-A
SOUTHSIDE OL CHICAGO WAY
SHE HELD HER SHOES IN ONE HAND
AND IN HER OTHER HAND
SHE HELD A CIGARETTE
TARNISHED AND YET INNOCENT

SO SHE LET ME DRIVE A WHILE
AND I LET HER RUN THE RADIO
SHE STUCK HER FEET OUT THE WINDOW
LET THE WIND BLOW THROUGH HER HAIR
SHE SAID I GOT NO WHERE TO GO
AND BABY I DON'T CARE

CUZ I'M 13 MILES FROM NOWHERE
AND I'M STARING AT THE SUN
WHILE CARS GO DRIVIN BY
AND FRACTAL RAINBOWS
ARE BURNIN IN MY EYES
AND I'M HEADED OFF TO SOMEWHERE
THAT I KNOW I'LL NEVER FIND
I'LL JUST KEEP RUNNING WILD
LIFE, I'VE FOUND,
IS A NEVER-ENDING RIDE

SHE SAW ME SITTIN ON A BUS STOP
SOUTHEAST CORNER L-A-X-
I DIDN'T HAVE A NEXT OF PLANS...
I HELD MY COAT IN ONE HAND
AND IN MY OTHER HAND
I HELD MY OLD GUITAR
I'D COME SO CLOSE
BUT STILL HAD FAR TO GO

AND SO SHE LET ME DRIVE A WHILE
AND WE TALKED ABOUT THE DAYS BEFORE
SHE STUCK HER FEET OUT THE WINDOW
LET THE WIND BLOW THROUGH HER HAIR
SHE SAID I GOT NO ONE TO HOLD
AND BABY I DON'T CARE

CUZ I'M 13 MILES FROM NOWHERE
AND I'M STARRING AT THE SUN
WHILE CARS GO DRIVIN BY
AND FRACTAL RAINBOWS
BURNIN IN MY EYES
AND I'M HEADED OFF TO SOMEWHERE
THAT I KNOW I'LL NEVER FIND
I'LL JUST KEEP RUNNING WILD
LIFE, I'VE FOUND
IS A NEVER-ENDING RIDE

I SAW HER SITTIN ALL ALONE
SOMETIMES THINGS WORK OUT THAT WAY
SHE DIDN?T HAVE A LOT TO SAY
I SAID I'M HEADED EASTWARD
I HAD TO COME THE WHOLE WAY
JUST TO FIND YOU
HERE IN D-F-DOUBLE-U

SO SHE LET ME DRIVE A WHILE
AND WE TALKED ABOUT THE DAYS TO COME
SHE STUCK HER FEET OUT THE WINDOW
LET THE WIND BLOW THROUGH HER HAIR
SHE SAID YOU KNOW, I'LL ALWAYS BE HOME
AS LONG AS YOU ARE THERE

AND I'M 13 MILES FROM NOWHERE
AND I'M STARRING AT THE SUN
WHILE CLOUDS GO FLYIN BY
AND FRACTAL RAINBOWS
BURNIN IN MY EYES
AND I'M HEADED OFF TO SOMEWHERE
THAT I KNOW ILL ONE DAY FIND
I'LL JUST KEEP RUNNING WILD
THIS LOVE I FOUND
RIGHT ALONG MY SIDE

I HOPE YOU HAVE THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE?
