On the westbound drive Not picking up your phone My mirror's on the rise I don't mind the open road For that last ten days Got this aching in my bones Might pack it all away and hit the open road Don't let it die A little piece of mind Always find the time Don't let it go The faith you keep inside Its all you've ever known My whole life I've been waiting on a sign Seven years gone by And all the stories that he told I try to keep them tight Its all that's left to hold For the last few days Been picking at that song Its all I wanna play It takes me to that time Don't let it die A little piece of mind Always find the time Don't let it go The faith you keep inside Its all you've ever known My whole life I've been waiting on a sign Don't let it die A little piece of mind Always find the time Don't let it go The faith you keep inside Its all you've ever known My whole life I've been waiting on a sign On the westbound drive Not picking up your phone My mirror's on the rise I don't mind the open road

Up and gone before sunrise Trying to make ends meet Sailing on the sea just like their fathers Sacrifice for stormy night and days all the same Just thinking bout their sons and their daughters He cried SOS we`ve got men in the water Only time will tell if they will last Days go by and we`ve got divers in the water They`re fighting back the tears just like the rest Seems like just yesterday your daddy worked you on the waves Now seasons change hes passed just like the years He taught you everything you know How to catch a heavy load Man if he could only see you now He cried SOS we`ve got men in the water Only time will tell if they will last Days go by we`ve got divers in the water They`re fighting back the tears just like the rest We`re on our way home Cut our trip short We`re getting hit hard from the south And the way that wind blows I swear its all bones It's come to claim all of our souls

Oh how they try To clutter the truth They say you can fly Then hide all the rules The light of the lamp On a cold winters night Is shining on dreams that are trying to take flight Oh, that's how you fight With all the fear in your eyes I think I know Then find out I don't Its not lost on me Oh how they lie I see on the news Objects that cry The wind it blows through Dare not to think Don't try to refute 'Cause you just might expose a leak as the truth Oh, that's how you fight With all the fear in your eyes I think I know Then find out I don't Its not lost on me

Another sleepless night With all those bright headlights Just shining through the dark staring at you Look at that city line I will just pass on by I got deadlines, white lines, and dirty jeans Every road's the same no matter where the place Just keeping it between the lines to see another day Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way Look at the lot lizards Whisper a tempting word What is the price you'll pay on a lonely day Another truck stop meal A taste of something real I just leave my tip and be on my way Every road's the same no matter where the place Just keeping it between the lines to see another day Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way Every road's the same no matter where the place Just keeping it between the lines to see another day Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way Im stuck in this lonely town An all to familiar sound The voice in my head driving me insane Every road's the same no matter where the place Just keeping it between the lines to see another day Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way Just one more week and I'll be heading back your way

I held it in for way to long The right time never came along Maybe I missed the chance Words came crashing like the waves I felt on that September day They tried pulled me down I opened up the door and I see it in your eyes This town's got a hold on you Years go by just doing time Until we reach the other side I think we'll be just fine I guess I'll try For the first time in my life and now I Know How far I have to go Another winters rolling in Thinking of the summers when Our time was all we had Now all the little choices and the moments in our lives Brought us to where we stand I opened up the door and I see it in your eyes This town's got a hold on you Years go by just doing time Until we reach the other side I think we'll be just fine I guess I'll try For the first time in my life and now I Know How far I have to go I guess I'll try For the first time in my life and now I Know How far I have to go Don`t Know if I`ll make it on my own I need you now to carry me along I guess I'll try For the first time in my life and now I Know How far I have to go I guess I'll try For the first time in my life and now I Know How far I have to go

It was a long time coming and I held my breath I laid awake I never said nothing I bought a one way ticket and I lost my way Spent all your life trying to change my ways And all I wanna hear you say There’s gonna be better days I waist away in the beating sun To break my back and never please no one We just got news a baby’s on the way We’ll take the chance to carry on his name And all I wanna hear you say There’s gonna be better days I wear my heart under my sleeve Never knew how it was costing me Then the cloud of darkness leading the way To the kind of places no one wants to stray And all I wanna hear you say There’s gonna be better days And all I wanna hear you say There’s gonna be better days It was a long time coming And I held my breath I laid awake I never said nothing I Bought a one way ticket and I lost my way Spent all your life trying to change my ways
