Lyrics
Riding round in my automobile
I find myself lost in thought
On my way to another day
I?m on the road and yet I?m not
Feeling some strange things happening in my life
Wondering why I followed this road of strife
(Chorus:)
Life is changing, it?s rearranging
The strings that tug at my heart again
Life is changing, it?s rearranging
The strings that tug at my heart again
The morning drive is always worst
Part of me still in dreamland
A cup of magic is what I need
Feel the warmth in my hands
Warming me inside out, up from the ground
Helping me hold on tight while the wheel turns round
CHORUS
Heading home is not so bad
A little time to wind down, calm my mind down
Even if the roads are hell
Gives me a chance to get my anger out
And notice I feel so stupid but I don?t know why
Swallowing hard and breathing out with a sigh
CHORUS
Climbing out of my automobile
I find myself without a thought
Back home from another day
I?m off the road and yet I?m not
Wheels turning
Things churning
Fire burning
