(Verse) Beauty like yours tends to me, gets on roads Using people as props and crutches and toads (Verse) Beauty like yours tends to me, gets on roads Using people as props and crutches and toads And yet in my name tear long list of fools By the time you read this I’m gone
(Chorus) And it’s so long, I love you But I can’t stand what I have become Gone to search for my soul on a highway I know Out west where the wheel meets the road
(Verse) I don’t think you ever really liked me But you sure love a man that you thought I could be Someone you could tame, now you act so ashamed And so disappointed and faint
(Chorus) And it’s so long, I love you But I can’t stand what I have become Gone to search for my soul on a highway I know Out west where the wheel meets the road
(Bridge) I’ll be gone in the blink of a taillight I’ll be gone in the wink of an eye The lie is that you couldn’t stop me The truth is your hardly even tried
(Chorus x2) And it’s so long, I love you But I can’t stand what I have become Gone to search for my soul on a highway I know Out west where the wheel meets the road.
