Lyrics

Miles Home To You
words & music: Ann Reed

Pitch black, pavement, headlights
Sore back, stale scent, midnight
Car in front
License pale blue
Closin' in on home, Lucky you

Truck stop, caffeine, 'phone call
Eavesdrop, laughing, long haul
Mileage signs
Makin' believe
Progress is made, Lucky me

Drivin' my way under bridges & clouds
Reciting a prayer as I do
Deliver me safe I am saying out loud
Driving back over miles home to you

Semis, new Fords, old bugs
Blue sky, billboards,Wall Drug
Pick-up in front
Of a house with a view
Already home, Lucky you (chorus)

Free lane, yield right of way
Caution hearts are merging
As the time grows close
Slowly, oh, exit only
To the love I carry with me
Over miles home

Road crew, Chi-town, rainstorm
Toll booth, eyes on 94
Oasis, part of the scene
Closer to home
Lucky me (chorus)
