Riding at night through the wind and rain
Trying to find my way home
This weary traveller's been gone to long
I return, never more to roam
I've seen big city lights and miles of highway
White lines they never seem to end
But they light the way to a beautiful place
Back to see my best friend
And this road is lonesome and I'm feeling blue,
And I can't get you off of my mind
When I get back, babe, I'm gonna stay,
No more to leave you behind
The silhouette of tree tops they flash by the window
Been down this road a hundred times before
I can drive it in my sleep from here to our cabin
The sign says just twenty miles more
The road I travel, it leads to your door
You know that's where I wanna be
Now I can see a light in the window of a cabin
And a little girl that's waitin' there for me
