Words and music Emily Saliers[00:00:09]
Jet fuel and traffic lines[00:00:12]
Pulling up to the delta signs[00:00:15]
Distant shape of my hometown[00:00:18]
Black stain where the wheels touch down[00:00:22]
I pick up the morning news[00:00:25]
I pass the man who's never shined my shoes[00:00:28]
Through security and to the train[00:00:32]
That will take me to the airplane[00:00:35]
Count the miles on the highway[00:00:45]
(Count the miles on the highway)[00:00:48]
The sum of all my days[00:00:49]
(The sum of all my days)[00:00:51]
There's a postcard there's a call[00:00:52]
(There's a call)[00:00:54]
And there's a picture for your bedroom wall[00:00:55]
(Bedroom wall)[00:00:58]
But do you ever wonder through and through[00:00:58]
Who's that person standing next to you[00:01:02]
(Who's that person standing next to you)[00:01:04]
And after all the nights apart[00:01:05]
Is there a home for a travelling heart[00:01:08]
But if I weren't leaving you[00:01:11]
(If I weren't leaving if I weren't leaving you)[00:01:16]
I don't know what I would do[00:01:19]
(I would do)[00:01:23]
But the more I go the less I know[00:01:25]
Will the fire still burn on my return[00:01:29]
Keep the path lit on the only road I know[00:01:32]
Honey all I know to do is go[00:01:39]
A cup of coffee and my bags are packed[00:01:55]
(Coffee and my bags are packed)[00:01:58]
The same vow not to look back[00:01:59]
(Same vow not to look back)[00:02:01]
(If I weren't leaving)[00:02:02]
Familiar emptiness inside[00:02:03]
(Familiar emptiness inside)[00:02:04]
As the distances grow wide[00:02:04]
(If I weren't leaving)[00:02:07]
And though I vow to memorize[00:02:08]
(I vow to memorize)[00:02:11]
The last look in your loving eyes[00:02:12]
(The last look in your loving eyes)[00:02:14]
It's here dusk and there dawn[00:02:15]
Oh it's like a curtain getting slowly drawn[00:02:18]
But if I weren't leaving you[00:02:21]
(If I weren't leaving if I weren't leaving you)[00:02:25]
I don't know what I would do[00:02:29]
(I would do)[00:02:33]
But the more I go the less I know[00:02:35]
Will the fire still burn on my return[00:02:39]
Keep the path lit on the only road I know[00:02:42]
Honey all I know to do is go[00:02:49]
But if I weren't leaving you[00:03:32]
(If I weren't leaving if I weren't leaving you)[00:03:35]
I don't know what I would do[00:03:39]
(I would do)[00:03:43]
(Leaving you)[00:03:45]
But the more I go it seems the less I know[00:03:46]
(But the more I go the less I know)[00:03:48]
Will the fire still burn on my return[00:03:49]
(Will the fire still burn on my return)[00:03:51]
Keep the path lit on the only road I know[00:03:52]
(Keep the path lit on the only road I know)[00:03:56]
