I was standing, on the side of the road,
Feeling lonely, getting cold,
I looked back just one last time
In my pocket, lonely old dime
The woods were dark, and full of fear
But my heart was strong and mind was clear
I had a sack, light as a whistle
But force of mind like a missile
And then you stopped by, in your old car
You opened your window, like you open a bar
You looked at me, just this one time
“you wanna ride” you said “it ain’t a crime”
We drove away, into the night
The new life, the new fresh start
I threw my sack, I threw my coat
Cause I was new and I was afloat
And though we talked about a house
About our life, and your new blouse
We drove and eat, and danced for days
We knew we had to part our ways
You left no number, no address near
You left me just a few cans of beer
But when you looked into my eyes
Then I knew our sun would still rise
‘Cause we will meet when the tide is gone
And we will lie on our lawn
The world will stop, the music ‘ll play
We’ll walk on clouds the night and day
It’s my road and it’s my own
It’s my heart and it’s my soul
So don’t judge stay of my way
Or be free with me and free you stay
