She said, "Baby, get me out of here"
And right then I knew just where
A little place not far away
A little less than half a day behind the wheel
So we left out in the pouring rain
And headed down that interstate
Tryin' to leave the clouds behind
Not knowing if we'd ever find the sun that day
We found ourselves lost in conversation
About a hundred miles beyond our destination
And she just laughed
She said, "It ain't about an exit past, a dot on the map, no
That ain't where we're goin', it ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'"
"It's not about the path we take or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere as fast as we can drive"
She said, "Baby, it's all about the ride"
She said, "Baby, let's just turn around
And find that exit we missed somehow
And I know we won't miss that sign
No, not a second time to that little town"
Then we found ourselves still lost in conversation
As once again we passed out destination
And we just laughed
She said, "It ain't about an exit past, dot on the map no
That ain't where we're goin', it ain't about the road we're on
How far we've gone as long as we keep rollin'"
"It's not about the path we take or the end of the line
It's not about us getting somewhere as fast as we can drive"
She said, "Baby, it's all about the ride"
She said, "Baby, get me out of here"
