Lately, I've been doing some thinking,Trying to work out what went wrong,Seems to me I’ve been putting up with you for way too long,So I'm picking up and moving on.I’m hitting the road,Out on my own,Deleting your number from my phone,Gonna learn to be happy,Just like I used to be,Before I let you bring me down,No more excuses,Or needing to prove that,I’m good enough as I am,I’m taking off, I’ve had enough,Oh, I’m hitting the road, I’m hitting the road.
I can't believe it took me so long,Just to see the hold you had on me,But now it’s like I can breathe,Nobody to answer to but me,And that’s how it’s meant to be,Finally doing’ this, finally free!I’m hitting the road,Out on my own,Deleting your number from my phone,Gonna learn to be happy,Just like I used to be,Before I let you bring me down,No more excuses,Or needing to prove that,I’m good enough as I am,I’m taking off, I’ve had enough,Oh, I’m hitting the road, I’m hitting the road.

Hot sun, lazy days,Day dreamin’ in the summer haze,Slowin’ down and losing track of time.
Warm nights an ice cold beer,Nothing but the crickets singing in my ear,It feels good to be back home again.
It’s been too long since we came back to where it all began,Just two kids falling in love,Makin’ plans to run away and start a life out on our own,It was all so long ago,But there’s no place quite like home.
Married now, with a couple a kids,Oh time flies but that’s the way it is,Where did those 25 years go?
Sometimes going back,Is the only way to keep your present day on track,You need to see how far you've come.
It’s been too long since we came back to where it all began,Just two kids falling in love,Makin’ plans to run away and start a life out on our own,It was all so long ago,But there’s no place quite like home.

Only six years old, I already knew,How my life would be, what I was gonna do,Had it all worked out, I didn't see a reason why it wouldn't come about,I dreamed, I hoped, believed,And everything else in between,There was nothing in this world stopping me.
Fast forward to my early teens,I'd given up on the childhood dream,Sick of trying to fit in at school,Always being different and never being cool,I dreamed, I hoped, believed,And everything else in between,That I could be six years old again.
When I was everything I wanted to be,Nothing seemed to be out of reach,Life was simple and time was on my side.
To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,Never lose your spark,Never lose your smile,Keep shining bright just like a star,You're perfect as you are.
Started working at the local store,A good job, but wanted so much more,Too big for a small town,But not knowing how to break down all the doors,I dreamed, I hoped, believed,And everything else in between,That things would change.
Didn't wanna meet mister right,Didn't need another reason to end up tied,Won't settle for settling down,When there’s a whole wide world just waiting to be found,I dreamed, I hoped, believed,And everything else in between,Needed to remember the time.
When I was everything I wanted to be,Nothing seemed to be out of reach,Life was simple and time was on my side.
To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,Never lose your spark,Never lose your smile,Keep shining bright just like a star,You're perfect as you are, You're perfect as you are.

You bring me coffee every morning while I lay in bed,You read the paper, take a shower, it’s the same every day,Never changes,But I love our little ways.
I make you toast the way you like without the edges on,You go to work but call me straight away 'cause you already miss home,And our little world,And all our little ways.
You,Are the reason that I smile,The good thing in my life,You,You may not ever see,Just what you mean to me.
Wanna spend the rest of my life,Holding your hand, stood by your side,Wanna be the girl on your arm,Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,In happy endings, with your best friend,Like a fairy tale.
Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,Wanna be your everything,Wanna see how life turns out,The good the bad and all that’s in between,Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,Wanna share my life and all our little ways.
You stroke my hair when I lay over you and watch TV,I rub your shoulders when you're stressed, I try to take your cares away,We've got each other and all our little ways.
You,Are the reason that I smile,The good thing in my life,You,You may not ever see,Just what you mean to me.
Wanna spend the rest of my life,Holding your hand, stood by your side,Wanna be the girl on your arm,Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,In happy endings, with your best friend,Like a fairy tale.
Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,Wanna be your everything,Wanna see how life turns out,The good the bad and all that’s in between,Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,Wanna share my life and all our little ways.

Everywhere I go,And everything I do,It’s like I've been looking,Looking for you.
I didn't really know,I didn't really care,But it’s like you had all the answers,The who, the when, the where.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained,The adventure where everything changed,The world had a way,Of leading me straight to you.
Anywhere I go,And anything I do,Just doesn't come close to how I feel,When I'm with you.
So I guess that in the end,It was always meant to be,I was made for you,And you were made for me.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained,The adventure where everything changed,The world had a way,Of leading me straight to you.

Every time you look my way,I get a feeling there'll be hell to pay,If I let you in, you're gonna let me down.Your reputation leaves a lot to be desired,You've got the devil in your eyes.
But when you come knocking,There’s just no stopping my heart from letting you in,I can't control it, and I hate that you know it,You've really gotten under my skin,Oh, I should ignore you, oh, I should see right through you,But it’s like you've got me under your spell,I need to turn around before you lead me down,A one way street to hell.
When I think I'm doing fine,You got a habit of crossing my mind,Like a movie on repeat.Everything about you tells me you're no good,I need to walk away, oh, I know I should.
But when you come knocking,There’s just no stopping my heart from letting you in,I can't control it, and I hate that you know it,You've really gotten under my skin,Oh, I should ignore you, oh, I should see right through you,But it’s like you've got me under your spell,I need to turn around before you lead me down,A one way street to hell.
You're gonna bring me down,You're gonna bring me down.

When it rains it pours,And I feel like I've been drowning,Since you've been gone.I believed in love and happy endings,But that ended when it all went wrong.
Now in the dead of the night,The pain gets a little bit stronger,I spend a little longer thinking about you,And when the music plays,It don't hit in the same way,You took the soul from the song,And the words right outta my mouth.
When the cold wind blows,Without an arm to wrap around your shoulder,It feels a little colder than it did before.I wish I knew, if there was something I could do,To stop my mind reminding me you're not here no more.
Now in the dead of the night,The pain gets a little bit stronger,I spend a little longer thinking about you,And when the music plays,It don't hit in the same way,You took the soul from the song,And the words right outta my mouth.

It’s been three days since I saw the light,It’s like I only come alive at night,Like a dog on a city street,Keeping my head low and dragging my feet.
Falling through the cracks,Since you upped and walked away,Right back to the lonely girl you met that day,I’d rather have not met you than feel this way.
It’s been three days since I saw your face,Can't shake the vision of you packing your suitcase,You said you don't know what you want,I said I didn't want a broken heart.
Falling through the cracks,Since you upped and walked away,Right back to the lonely girl you met that day,I’d rather have not met you than feel this way.

I look at the sun,And I know it’s gonna be one of the days,That takes me right back to when I was young,Dreaming through the summer haze.
When nothing was scary, I could do anything.Loving to cartwheel and dance in the rain,Pulling up daisies to put in a chain,Laughing for hours and rolling down hills,Climbing the trees at the old farmer's mill.
These are the days I remember,These are the days I miss,When young and free was all I had to be,And reality didn't exist.
Stuck on the train riding to work again,Life on a one-way street,My only escape is to pause and replay,Like a memory played on repeat.
When nothing was scary, I could do anything.Loving to cartwheel and dance in the rain,Pulling up daisies to put in a chain,Laughing for hours and rolling down hills,Climbing the trees at the old farmer's mill.
These are the days I remember,These are the days I miss,When young and free was all I had to be,And reality didn't exist.
Take me back to being young,Take me back to being young,Take me back to being young,Take me back to being young.

Sun goes down,Dark all around,Look away, go away now,Nothing left to say now.
Doors stay closed,What was new now is old,Run away, turn away now,Nothing you can say now.
It falls away,The cracks appear in the glass,Facing the ghost of the past,Making the heartaches last,It’s up to me,The keeper of my destiny,Too far for the eye to see,Wrapped up safe and sound inside me.
Tears fall down,Never make a sound,You can go, you can go now,Nothing you can do now.
Life goes on,Forever holding on,Another day to take away now,Nothing left to say now.
It falls away,The cracks appear in the glass,Facing the ghost of the past,Making the heartaches last,It’s up to me,The keeper of my destiny,Too far for the eye to see,Wrapped up safe and sound.
It falls away,The cracks appear in the glass,Facing the ghost of the past,Making the heartaches last,It’s up to me,The keeper of my destiny,Too far for the eye to see,Wrapped up safe and sound inside me.

I know a place just out of town,Comes to life when the sun goes down,Where everybody knows your name,And no two nights are ever the same.
There’s a band playing country blues,King of the road and blue suede shoes,Two steppin' on the worn oak floor,People don’t dance like that no more.
This is where they come to play,After a long day,Come and drink the night away.At the sunset saloon,We hope ya come back soon.
With a friend or by yourself,The beer's always cold and the liquor's top shelf,Smoke twirling under neon lights,You won't be blue for long on whiskey night.
Shooting pool, hustling from the pros,Knocking down shots like dominoes,Leave your money on the table, double or quits,You don't even know you've lost when the tequila hits.
This is where they come to play,After a long day,Come and drink the night away.At the sunset saloon,We hope ya come back soon.
This is where they come to play,After a long day,Come and drink the night away.At the sunset saloon,We hope ya come back soon.

Im chasing moonbeams in my sleep,
Making myself promises I cannot keep to,
See through until the end,
I'm losing ground to you, But bound to you.

Im chasing fake gold,
I'm coming after you,
You're making me old,
You… Got me on the run,
Got me on the run,
Got me on the run now yeah, I'm breaking rainbows in my sleep,
Waking myself up,
Trying to heat up the cold,
Your soul and everything about this empty hole.

It's got us all on the run,
It's got us all on the run.

Im chasing fake gold,
I'm coming after you,
You're making me old,
You… Got me on the run,
Got me on the run,
Got me on the run now yeah.
