Miles To Go

In the dead of the night 'mid an empty desert road
The mile markers fade and I don't know where to go
A thousand miles away scared knees bend in endless prayer
The voices of two angels asking Mom does God care

I broke out clean I did my time but now the gas is running low
And in my youth I knew this place now I don't know where to go
And I just know that I need you all hold me close don't let me go
My family's love is what keeps me alive 'n now I'm racing back to home

Now it's miles to go
Just miles to go

When we were young and new to love we had plans we thought we'd see
But amid the shattered glass you're still holding on to me
And I am trying to forget all the ugly of this world
Cause it means so much to me to be with you 'n both our girls
In the barren desert scape the world is cold and I'm so alone
And just because I'm home again doesn't mean I'm really home

Because every time I close my eyes I see a dirty filthy bed
But as the darkness suffocates the light I see you shining in my head

It's miles to go
Just miles to go
Just miles to go
