As towns lie in slumber we fade into the night
The cities so familiar are like a long lost friend
With open arms they shelter me and bring me home to them
And we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles away
Just outside of Memphis where rock and roll began
We say a prayer for Elvis then on the road again
The mind begins to wander as memories unfold
The music on the radio reminds us of our homes
And we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles away
Sometimes it seems the road will never end
Sometimes it seems my only friend
What will tomorrow tell I just can't say today
Because I'm always miles away miles away
The boy I left at home took his first steps today
I'll watch him on the video before I leave to play
'Cause we're miles away
Always miles away
Rolling on down the highway
Living for the day
Seems I'm always miles and miles away
Always miles away
All of my life is rolling
I'm living just to play
Seems I'm always miles away
Seems I'm always miles away
Seems I'm always miles away miles away
