It could just be me but there抯 a phoniness about

The magic and the mystery of 3am

Pondering not so much the meaning of life

More the miles per lonely hour before a coffee stop again



Asleep on the motorway

There is a world beyond the glare of these lights

Asleep on the motorway

Trying hard to believe it抯 just one of those nights



No-one here to guide me through the darkest hour

Just lines on the road like days in a year

Trains of thought run alongside, remote in the dark

You抳e gotta keep alert to stop 抏m getting too near



Asleep on the motorway

There is a world beyond the glare of these lights

Asleep on the motorway

Trying hard to believe it抯 just one of those nights



And then it hits me, or rather, I hit it



Asleep on the motorway

There is a world beyond the glare of these lights

Asleep on the motorway

Trying hard to believe it抯 just one of those nights



Asleep on the motorway

There is a world beyond the glare of these lights

Asleep on the motorway

Trying hard to believe it抯 just one of those nights
