from Into the Mystery

..............................................



Her car is how she left it. No dust has gotten in

The key turns on the dash lights, and the CD player spins

You hear her favorite music, the words she used to sing

The last song she was playing, now comes to life again



Beyond the blue horizon, together you and me

The road goes on forever, the road goes on forever

As far as I can see



Well, so much for forever, and the promise of a song

Why save her list of errands after she is gone

Her bracelet?s on the gear shift, and her sweater smells like her

And still her music?s playing, as if she might return



Beyond the blue horizon, together you and me

The road goes on forever, the road goes on forever

As far as I can see



You race away with wheel spin, and you?re slamming through the gears

And the headlights blur and sparkle to see them through your tears

And someone will find the wreckage, with the wheels turned to the sky

Led there by the music, singing through the night



Beyond the blue horizon, together you and me

The road goes on forever, the road goes on forever

As far as I can see, as far as I can see



Beyond the blue horizon, together you and me

The road goes on forever, the road goes on forever

As far as I can see, as far as I can see

As far as I can see

As far as I can see
