We passed the stores, we passed the hotels
Filled our car with gasoline
We drove that night, I saw the moon
Almost got us in an accident
And then at the rest stop
When that woman tried to steal my wallet
It felt like an adventure isnt that what you would call it? i
Snt that what you would call it?
Youre my road buddy, but Im lonely all the time
I thought wed be joking, having long talks on late night drives
But you drive so bad I lost my patience
So pass the chips and turn the station
This is not a romance with the road

Where the moss grows up the trees
To where the bird is rusty
I thought wed find ecah story like a snakeskin or an arrowhead
But we onlys top at fastfood places
They hate thier jobs, I understand
They try to act familiar, but theyre floating just above the land
And we are all floating
Youre my road buddy, but Im lonely all the time
I thought wed show that friendship could be stronger than the crossroads
Double back I thought I heard the tori sing,
Ill take that thing
This is not a romance with the road

In those cliffs are the same as in the magazines I have at home
And the tall grass reminds me of the same dreams I had at home
I thought life was a road and I wanted to begin it
I said, my friend and I going on a trip so I could only stop a minute
We go to the venting machines,
I want to watch these kids with their mother, sipping on their juice boxes and
Smiling at each other,
And maybe thats their dad on the phone,
Saying, hey mon, you couldnt wait, go ahead, have dinner, cause werre running
Just a little late
But were on our way
Road buddy, road buddy, I heard about the boxcars and the family of travelers
But theres real estate sides in the cornfields I know theres love,
I bet theres trouble
But you just cant spend a lifetime on the road and theres something I finally
Faced
I finally think I come from someplace
This is not a romance with the road
