The long drive between the room you played last night and the one you play tonight.
There's a highway sign that's older than my father
And a diner where the coffee never ends
I have loaded up this car a hundred Sundays
And unloaded it again
And the radio keeps finding the same station
Singing something I already know
It's one more mile, one more mile
Everything I own is in the back
And the only thing I'm sure of is the sound
So I'm not turning back
I have met a hundred people going backwards
With a story where they nearly got it right
I don't want to be the one who nearly got there
So I'm driving through the night
