I kick the dirt from my shoes Dirt it seemed liked keeping me from home The open road to make my liquored tongue shut down And it's the only place where I can feel alone So give me a little more time To live this distant life Console my crowded mind Free me from this lie To see your eyes through mine I peel the wax from both my knuckles on the wheel I'll hold your candle forever in my soul Flames to vex my angry heart, still too warm to feel Will I go colder as I'm growing old Give me a little more time To live this distant life Console my crowded mind Free me from this lie To see your eyes through mine Oh, to see your eyes through mine Well I was told the world is round And I've been on the longest straightest street Woah I spend all my time driving around Away from all the people that I meet Woah And if I drive away from you for long enough Will I be back at your feet? So give me a little more time And grant this life to pass me by Console my crowded mind Free me from this lie To see your eyes through mine Oh, to see your eyes through mine
