I'm on my way to somewhere

I've never been somewhere these eyes

have never seen another winding road

destination unknown

no address

no post code

another day

a little further away

these broken lines will lead me home

but not tonight

another voice at the end of this long distance phone line

a day

a lifetime

however long it takes

for ever is not far enough away



[chorus]

bright lights shine

in virgin eyes

tail lights red

they fade away

this dashboard glow

we'll drive all night

[counter chorus]

another day away

eight days from home

there's so far

so far to go

eight days from home



we'll drive all night

until we can't drive any further

we'll drive all night

until sleep is calling

we'll drive all night

until the new day sunrise



I'm leaving home again

when I'll come back

I can't say for certain

I'll take my pen

I'll write when I can

thats a promise

My bags are packed

my toothbrush

a photograph

postcards

an august notion

My favourite T-shirt

This distance travelled

I'm miles from home

miles from what I know

Theres still so far to go



[chorus]

bright lights shine

in virgin eyes

tail lights red

they fade away

this dashboard glow

we'll drive all night

[counter chorus]

another day away

eight days from home

there's so far

so far to go

eight days from home



Forever it seems

won't be long enough



[outro]

Another day away

eight days from home
