There is no one else around 

The road is quiet, the only sound 

Is wind that sounds like cars that sound like breathing 

The desert air is hot and dry 

Two lanes weaving earth and sky 

The stars are all that's keeping time till morning 

And I turn and look beside me 

And you're sleeping like a baby 

And you haven't heard a word that I've been saying 

And the way you look tonight 

Fast asleep in the dashboard light 

Well I can't speak, and that's how I feel 



Chorus: 

Open your eyes and look at me, and look at me 

Open your eyes and look at me 

'Cause I have and hold this love for you 

Before this ten year night is through 

I'm telling you 

Take it from me, take it from me 



We're ten years older I know we are 

Than the night we met in that downtown bar 

You thought I was some kind of star, that's what you said 

I felt your skin, I felt the heat 

As you pulled me out into the street 

And you kissed me there till I was weak 'cause I asked you to 

And later on on your kitchen floor 

Two flights above the grocery store 

I felt things I never felt before, and still do 



Chorus 



Going eighty on the highway 

we're all rushing somewhere 

But the way I feel tonight 

It's like I"m already there
