Life never gave us time to settle down
  And you questioned whether frightened love can last
  And that ole highway song is just not where it's at

  The trees roll by and the white lines hold me back
  From mobile to Denver there's something that they all lack
  So until we find a place to make a new start
  I will build you a homestead in my heart

  Well I'm lookin' at you sleepin' across the seat
  And the whine of the trucks are fillin' up my ears
  All the highs and lows left somewhere in between
  All those one night stands between Dallas and new Orleans

  Well I can't offer much except the love
  Of a guitar picker ain't nobody thinkin' of
  So until we find a place to make a new start
  I will build you a homestead in my heart

  So until we find a place to make a new start
  I will build you a homestead in my heart
