Sunrise paints the windshield gold, another day unfurls
Eighteen wheels and endless road, a lonely trucker's world
Empty seat beside me, silence fills the air
Miles tick by in endless streams, burdens I can't share
Steel horizon stretches out, a promise and a pain
Driving for a future bright, through sun and endless rain
These hands that grip the wheel so tight, build a life they'll never see
But love's the fuel that keeps me going, across this vast country
Desert heat shimmers on the hood, radio plays a faded tune
Faces blur in passing towns, a world I see alone beneath the moon
Cities rise and fall like dreams, a million stories in my wake
Longing for a fireside chat, a family's joyful ache
Steel horizon stretches out, a promise and a pain
Driving for a future bright, through sun and endless rain
These hands that grip the wheel so tight, build a life they'll never see
But love's the fuel that keeps me going, across this vast country
This life ain't easy, miles weigh heavy on my soul
But every mile I conquer brings us closer to our goal
There'll be days I miss you all, the laughter and the tears
But when I reach that final stop, these doubts will disappear
Steel horizon stretches out, a promise and a pain
Driving for a future bright, through sun and endless rain
These hands that grip the wheel so tight, build a life they'll never see
But love's the fuel that keeps me going, across this vast country
