This Road Is Mine

It was our 14th summer back in '93
I'd never been in love before until you looked at me
I had my Members Only jacket, you rocked those acid wash jeans
Holding hands and making plans down at the Dairy Queen
That summer's all we had, didn't know it at the time
But you had to your own way, Baby, and this road is mine

First set of wheels, full tank of gas
Cruising these backroads drumming on the dash
Mixtape in the stereo, Charlie Major on full blast
Never thought that day was gonna be our last
I know you're here with me, if only in my mind
But you had your own path to take, my friend, and this road is mine
This road is mine, this road is mine

We all have a journey we need to take
We all have choices that we need to make
Someday I'll see you further down the line
But until we meet again, this road is mine
This road is mine, this road is mine

When I think about my life it's like a movie scene
That Members Only jacket went with those acid wash jeans
And that mixtape's still on the floor of my first car
And I think of you and what we shared when I look at the stars
Only God knows when we run out of time
Until that day comes around, this road is mine
This road is mine, this road is mine
