Lyrics
There?s a long stretch of highway out in front of me
A lot of roadside Texaco stations to fill ?er up, keep me going
I covered up my rear view mirror with you old worn out baseball cap
So I won?t see anything if I?m tempted to look back
When you wake up and you?re all alone
You can?t find me anywhere
You look for a note and call my folks
I can just hear you telling them it?s some kind of joke
And that I?ll soon be home
But I won?t
I won?t
A strong black cup of caffeine keeping me awake
The local late night radio station is fading out, but that?s okay
?Cause every mile marker I pass by means I?m further way from what I?m leaving behind
And slowing down means thinking about
That look on your face, that look in your eyes
When you wake up and you?re all alone
You can?t find me anywhere
You look for a note and call my folks
I can just hear you telling them it?s some kind of joke
And that I?ll soon be home
But I won?t
I won?t
You wish you would have loved me just a little more
You wish you would have slammed just one less door
You wish you hadn?t been untrue ? I do
And you wish that I was laying here next to you
When you wake up and you?re all alone
You can?t find me anywhere
You look for a note and call my folks
I can just hear you telling them it?s some kind of joke
And that I?ll soon be home
Yeah you think I?ll soon be home
But I won?t
I won?t
No not this time, I won?t
