Big Wheels In The Moonlight Lyrics - Singles - Dan Seals

I came from a town that was so small you look both ways and you could see it all 

All I wanted was some way out every evening I'd slip into town 

And stand around by the caution light and watch the big trucks rolling by 

For me it was a beautiful sight big wheels in the moonlight 

I had a case of wanderlust I'd lie awake with the windows up 

Out on highway fifty-nine I could hear some big old diesel whine 

She was going through all the gears headed out to who knows where 

I fell asleep most every night dreaming about big wheels in the moonlight 

And I want to put my life on the centerline 

And I want to see the world before I die 

And I know that there's a peace I'll never find 

'Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind 

How I got here it's hard to say so many things got in my way 

Can't complain about all I've got kids and a wife and a regular job 

But at night when I'm setting here all alone in a living room chair 

Sometimes I close my eyes and see big wheels in the moonlight 

And I want to put my life on the centerline 

And I want to see the world before I die 

And I know that there's a peace I'll never find 

'Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind 

And I want to put my life on the centerline 

And I want to see the world before I die 

And I know that there's a peace I'll never find 

'Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind 

'Cause those big old wheels keep rolling through my mind
