He pulled out in a cloud of dust
Laying rubber and spewing rust
And on any road hed take
Hed have his foot on the pedal and my heart on the brake
Underneath the smooth tar curves
A road is only dust and dirt
On a lonely interchange
The signs all look the same

cause a road is just a road and a feelings just a feeling
No matter where you go, from waterloo to wichita
A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on
And midnights another dawn, 100 miles ago

His wheels spun out of sight of me
Believing that Id set him free
But Id heard the voice of the prisoner
Saying he couldnt get enough of her
You go by land, you go by air
You go by sea, hell I dont care
You can go any way you choose
Wearing out the soles of your traveling shoes

And a road is just a road and a feelings just a feeling
No matter where you go, from bangor, maine to bakersfield
A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on
And midnights another dawn, a hundred miles ago

And every sleepless night I see him
Screaming by the scenery
Not noticing another mile
Thats rolled down between him and me

cause a road is just a road and a feelings just a feeling
No matter where you go, from saskatoon to san antone
A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on
And midnights another dawn, a hundred miles ago

Yes, a road is just a road and a feelings just a feeling
No matter where you go, from san bernardino to sault ste.marie
A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on
And midnights another dawn, a hundred miles ago
