A Road Is Just A Road Lyrics - Carpenter Mary-chapin

He pulled out in a cloud of dust 

Laying rubber and spewing rust 

And on any road he'd take 

He'd have his foot on the pedal and my heart on the brake 

Underneath the smooth tar curves 

A road is only dust and dirt 

On a lonely interchange 

The signs all look the same 

'Cause a road is just a road and a feeling's just a feeling 

No matter where you go, from Waterloo to Wichita 

A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on 

And midnight's another dawn, 100 miles ago 

His wheels spun out of sight of me 

Believing that I'd set him free 

But I'd heard the voice of the prisoner 

Saying he couldn't get enough of her 

You go by land, you go by air 

You go by sea, hell I don't care 

You can go any way you choose 

Wearing out the soles of your traveling shoes 

And a road is just a road and a feeling's just a feeling 

No matter where you go, from Bangor, Maine to Bakersfield 

A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on 

And midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago 

And every sleepless night I see him 

Screaming by the scenery 

Not noticing another mile 

That's rolled down between him and me 

'Cause a road is just a road and a feeling's just a feeling 

No matter where you go, from Saskatoon to San Antone 

A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on 

And midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago 

Yes, a road is just a road and a feeling's just a feeling 

No matter where you go, from San Bernardino to Sault Ste. Marie 

A road is just a road that the one you love is leaving on 

And midnight's another dawn, a hundred miles ago
