Lyrics

I was somewhere on the open road
Between the east and the west -
It was a no man's land
And rumor says that it was a wilderness
Forty days it took me, forty nights
I've done some wrong
But I've done some right
There's no turning back
'Cause the lights are burning up ahead

Lead me to an open road
And put me on the freeway
Lead me to an open road
And put me on the freeway

I was traveling twice the speed of sound
Down a white line
Trying to be in the right place
At the right time
You can't stop me making tracks
Now I'm on the run
'Cause I set my sights on this road I ride
It's the only one

Lead me to an open road
And put me on the freeway
Lead me to an open road
And put me on the freeway

I can read the signs that I left behind
Like an open book
And I can't forget the things that you said
And the way you looked
I still hold the keys to the memory of the times we've seen
So when I look back
Things are not as black as they might have been
