Meg was trying her luck

on the slots at the truck stop off Exit 23

And she was tired of running out

She kept thinking, where's this highway gonna end for me?

And Michael knew this stop was sinking

returning words to his dear wife

to find out what it means to fall in love again.



I'm trying to live for this moment I've got here

but I can't even live with myself.



They're newly wed with classic arguments

two nights ago they spent their first away from home.

Meg held her cigarette, Mike held the door.

She had two nickles left to make it back

and she won't forget this night because



I'm trying to live for this moment I've got here

but I can't even live with myself
