Highway Drive

I shouldn't be surprised
It seemed to happen all the time
Putting in more than I get back
Maybe it's the way you were raised
Come from a long line of fate
That'd take a little too long to retract

It's time I leave this town and I leave you be
I never stopped loving you
Not one part of me

So I'll close that door
Leave it all behind
Take a dirt road downtown
Get on that highway drive
I can tell when I look in your eyes that we don't see
Eye to eye, yeah we see colors so differently
I grew up too close
Lookin' round at these city lights
So it's time I take a ride
Get on that highway drive

I'll be gone like the wind
Looking back at all I did
So much for happily ever after
Our story didn't last long
So before the epilogue
Know I loved you every chapter

So when you hear I'm leaving town and I leave you be
You hear me on your radio
Feel like the V.I.P.

So I'll close that door
Leave it all behind
Take a dirt road downtown
Get on that highway drive
I can tell when I look in your eyes that we don't see
Eye to eye, yeah we see colors so differently
I grew up too close
Lookin' round at these city lights
So it's time I take a ride
Get on that highway drive

Our love burned out just like the exit sign outside
Looks like I'm thankful cause it gave me piece of mind
I'm gonna go and you'll stay here wondering how you let me go
I'll do us both a favor
Do what we both know hurts most

And I'll close that door
Leave it all behind
Take a dirt road downtown
Get on that highway drive
I can tell when I look in your eyes that we don't see
Eye to eye, yeah we see colors so differently
I grew up dreaming of being under those stadium lights
So it's time I take a ride get on my highway drive
