SONG LYRICS
I can see the town on the top of the hill waiting for me
Counting down the miles while I’m looking for signs
Burned in my memory
Breathing in the sweet meadow air
Honeysuckle wind in my hair
It’s good to be
Out on the highway home
Taking back the time that’s flown
Wondering who I’ll see, going through the things I’ll say
Traveling at the speed of love
To the place I’ve been thinking of every day
Out on the highway home
Thinking ‘bout the warmth of the arms wrapping ‘round, taking me in
Smiling ‘cause I know while my heart’s catching up,
My head’s gonna spin
I’ll see my picture in a brand new frame
A little different, but still the same
That’s just me
Out on the highway home
Taking back the time that’s flown
Wondering who I’ll see, going through the things I’ll say
Traveling at the speed of love
To the place I’ve been thinking of every day
Out on the highway home
Have I lived those dreams that they dreamt for me?
Have I been gone too long?
All I know right here, right now, is that I belong
Out on the highway home
Taking back the time that’s flown
Wondering who I’ll see, going through the things I’ll say
Traveling at the speed of love
To the place I’ve been thinking of every day
Out on the highway home
I can see the town on the top of the hill waiting for me
