On having had enough today I drove my truck into the bay
Went home and took stock of my things and it's all so meaningless to me
So what to pawn and what to bring my Marshall amp and your wedding ring
These things have surely got to go I grab my guitar and hit the road
It seems like nothing now is bugging me and I can finally breathe
Is this what it's supposed to feel like when your free?
There is nowhere now I have to be and it don't bother me
Is this what it's supposed to feel like when your free?
When your free
Gas phone food lodging up ahead a new pack of strings a bigger bed
It's all I ever really need so leave me alone and let me be

Chorus
Out on the ocean there's a glow and the starlight dances on the snow
The sky is clear the air is clear
and no one but you knows I'm out here
no one but you knows I'm out here
No one but you
