[Verse 1]
County line slipping under the tires
Coffee gone cold in the cup by my knee
Your old denim jacket rides shotgun beside me
And the morning keeps widening out to the sea
[Pre-Chorus]
We left the porch light burning
We left the week behind
Every mile is turning
Like a page we didn’t mind
[Chorus]
Take me down that highway, let the white lines roll
Past the feed-store signs and the fields of gold
With your hand out the window, catching the breeze
We can lose the whole day somewhere past Tennessee
Take me down that highway, where the map runs thin
With the sun on the hood and the world rushing in
If the road keeps going, I know where I’ll stay
Right here beside you, mile after mile away
[Verse 2]
A paper map opens across the dashboard
You trace a blue river with one careful hand
We stop for peaches at a roadside stand
And eat them laughing where the tall grass leans
[Pre-Chorus]
The radio finds a station
Then fades to a hum
No need for destination
When the best part is what’s coming
[Chorus]
Take me down that highway, let the white lines roll
Past the feed-store signs and the fields of gold
With your hand out the window, catching the breeze
We can lose the whole day somewhere past Tennessee
Take me down that highway, where the map runs thin
With the sun on the hood and the world rushing in
If the road keeps going, I know where I’ll stay
Right here beside you, mile after mile away
[Bridge]
When the evening lays its blue across the hills
And the last town’s diner shuts its window blinds
We’ll find a place to pull over, watch the horizon settle
And let tomorrow wait until we change our minds
[Final Chorus]
Take me down that highway, let the white lines roll
Past the feed-store signs and the fields of gold
With your hand out the window, catching the breeze
We can lose the whole day somewhere past Tennessee
Take me down that highway, where the map runs thin
With the sun on the hood and the world rushing in
If the road keeps going, I know where I’ll stay
Right here beside you, mile after mile away
[Outro]
Mile after mile away
Right here beside you, mile after mile away
