Headlight beam cuts through the night
Like the point of this knife you drove through my heart.
Your goodbye words ringing in my ears,
The ones I never thought I'd hear, are tearing me apart.

Now I'm racing down this highway trying to outrun the wind;
Trying to make some

I won't see you in the morning light
I'll be sleeping miles away tonight
Far from your loving arms
I won't feel you lyin by my side
I'll be missing your sleepy sighs
And the beating of your heart

CHORUS

But I can't wait to close my eyes
and drift off t

Tonight I'm walking ten feet off the ground
Aint nobody gonna shut me down
Ive got the moon and the stars and you in my sights
yeah I'm feeling kinda lucky tonight ---X2
Fate dealt the cards and I played my best hand
I wagered it all on this one big chance
fortune

The lightning flashed and the thunder roared
and woke me from a dream.
I opened my eyes afraid of the dark
and all that I could not see.
Into the night I cried out in fright
Oh mama I'm so scared
come and hold me in your arms
Protect me from whats out there.

You don't know me, my name is body
I was born and raised right here in this valley.
I've got a job workin on the highways,
layin down them blacktops throughout this county.
Just like my daddy was I'me a workin man
Just like him I'm proud of who I am.
I'm somebody, I'm

I took the long way home tonight down a lonely road
No riders, no company, Just me and the radio.
One by one I watched the miles slowly fall behind
My heart weighing heavy knowing what I wouldn't find.
The moon over my shoulder and the stars up in the sky,
There to remin

Got a good women who cares for me
Whenever I'm in need, shes there for me
Steady as a rock and a comfort to me.
I,m a lucky man.
Got a couple of kids, They,ve turned out alright
They,ve got respect and they treat people right
In these wild times they still come home

I've heard that love makes the world go 'round.
Well, if that's true, she must be turning real slow.
Cause these days I find more and more lonely people
Everywhere I go.
And they're reaching out for love, but they can never get enough.

CHORUS:
Nobody, nobody gets too

Well I was waiting for you all nite baby
tellin myself what we're doin is crazy
'cuz we both know what we're headed for
your heart belongs to a friend of mine
someone else has got a claim on mine
here we are lying in each others arms tonight
we both know what we're doin i

Here I stand with my heart in my hand
Tryin so hard to understand
where it all went wrong with our love
It's funny how these changes come by
I can think back to a place in time
I could see forever in your eyes.
We pledged our love undying endlessly
we swore to
