Standing by the sunrise roadside
Another rainy winter day
Waiting for a ride east
Everybody's going the other way
And it always feels like leaving
And leaving's never what they claim
You tell yourself you'll get back soon
But you know it wouldn't be the same
Keep your hands on the wheel
Tune your ear to the sound
Just over the horizon
You can lay your head down
If i won that big cash jackpot
I would buy myself some sleep
Yes, i'm broke but i'm not broken
I've got some promises to keep
People pull up by the roots
Turn their backs and make that drive
Sometimes it seems souls leave the planet
At the same rate as they arrive
Keep your hands on the wheel
Tune your ear to the sound
Just over the horizon
You can lay your head down
I've always had a rearview mirror
I've always had a driving wheel
With every mile the past gets clearer
The future is slowly revealed
I'm gonna find someone to share some secrets
Someone who wants to take this ride
And if i don't get back here at all
I'll see you on the other side
Standing by the sunrise roadside
Another rainy winter day
Waiting for a ride east
Everybody's going the other way
And it always feels like leaving
And leaving's never what they claim
You tell yourself you'll get back soon
