{intro} He pulled out in a cloud of dust Laying rubber and spewing rust And on any road he'd take He'd have his foot on the pedal and my heart on the brake(break) 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 feeling's 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 midnight's another dawn, 100 miles ago {these two G's are only played the first time.} His wheels spun out of sight of me Believing that I'd set him free But I'd heard the voice of the prisoner Saying he couldn't get enough of her You go by land, you go by air You go by sea, hell I don't 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 feeling's 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 midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago {Guitar solo: same chords as chorus.} And every sleepless night I see him Screaming by the scenery Not noticing another mile That's rolled down between him and me 'Cause a road is just a road and a feeling's 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 midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago Yes, a road is just a road and a feeling's 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 midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago - Adam Schneider, [email protected]
