Girl I can hardly breathe
It's like you got a hold of my heart
And you're tearing it out of me
Here I'm never getting over you
I got one shot
I know what I gotta do
[Chorus:]
All that I need's
A second of silence
A moment of grace
A breath of clean air
In a wide open place
With a blue horizon slidin' into view
A hundred miles of highway'll
Make a new man of me
With nothing but beginnings as far as I can see
Girl I know the place I'm comin' to
It's just a years worth of distance from you
Don't know what it's gonna take
But from here on
I'm runnin' on blind faith
'N the only way I'm getting' through
Is to walk on from now on
Without you
[Repeat chorus]
A hundred miles of highway'll
Make a new man of me
With nothing but beginnings as far as I can see
Girl I know the best thing I can do
It's just a years worth of distance from you
Everything you were to me
Everything you touch
I oughta hate you girl
But I still love you too much
A hundred miles of highway'll
Make a new man of me
With nothing but beginnings as far as the eye can see
Girl I know the place I'm comin' to
It's just a years worth of distance from you
To build up my resistance
I'll take a years worth of distance
Distance from you
