lyrics

This interstate ain't getting any shorter
And the blue sky's burning orange soon
It's just looking for the exits and state lines
Then piling in to hotel rooms

I'll call you when I reach Georgia
But I'm stuck in Alabam
And I'll see you again when I reach Nashville
But till then I guess you've got an empty bed

I'm tired of this gas station coffee
But it's the cheapest I can find
And I couldn't go to sleep cause I was dreaming of you
So it's back to the right side of the lines

I've been searching the radio
For a song to remind me of you
And when I find it I'm gonna sing every single word I can
Till I can finally prove that my aim is true

It's getting cold here in Atlanta
Without the warmth of your smile
But I'll be home soon but it may take a while
Just remember don't give up on me now

Oh baby please don't give up on me now
