lyrics

Highway 80 east
Narrow Stairs on repeat
Cruise control on 85
And only 20 sleepy miles

Until the town that I don't know to spell
It's not that you'd refuse to tell
But we haven't talked along the way
And I don't know if you're awake

I'll never grow
tired of these tires by the road
They're just like me, they don't know where to go

We'll never know
What took these bodies lying on the road
But something makes them look like little ghosts

They were gone before they hit the ground
The traffic makes it harder to slow down
As my vision blurs you become a ghost
The movies in our heads well they go

We'll never grow
tired of these tires by the road
They're just like me, they don't know where to go

We'll never know
What took these bodies lying on the road
But something makes them look like little ghosts

California, here we go
It's been a long week but I know
That I'll be back
That twin sized bed
Is way too big to wear my rusty head

And when I'm home it's like I'm home from war
With no one waiting for me at the door
They changed the locks and locked the doors
And threw the keys right out to the dogs

As we pass the exit sign
Cath get's married one last time
