Roll Away
Rolling mountains, rolling sand
Rolling South Rio Grande
Sunlight ripples like a sail
Burning off the vapor trails
See the wildflowers passing by
Spilling underneath the power lines
Washes out as you go
Same old faces, same old road
Roll away
Like the night before the break of day
A passing moment we tried to save
Just rolls away
Words of welcome, words from home
Silence on the telephone
Buckled up, nowhere to go
In a crowd, and I'm all alone
Out the window, way up high
Glimmering against the sky
Something I saw in a dream
Waits down the road for me
Roll away
Roll away
All the things that we wanted to say
Just roll away
Roll away, roll
Roll away
Rolling South Rio Grande
Sunlight ripples like a sail
Burning off the vapor trails
See the wildflowers passing by
Spilling underneath the power lines
Washes out as you go
Same old faces, same old road
Roll away
Like the night before the break of day
A passing moment we tried to save
Just rolls away
Words of welcome, words from home
Silence on the telephone
Buckled up, nowhere to go
In a crowd, and I'm all alone
Out the window, way up high
Glimmering against the sky
Something I saw in a dream
Waits down the road for me
Roll away
Roll away
All the things that we wanted to say
Just roll away
Roll away, roll
Roll away
