Chasin' the sunset with the top down
Clouds painting shadows on the desert ground
Freedom laid out like a runway
As I runaway, runaway from you now
Mile on mile on a broken heart
But, I know I'm gonna be better before it gets dark
'Cause I feel a change in the open air
Anywhere, don't care, 'cept where you are from...
These drive-away memories
To every place you'll never be
I'm gonna find what's left of me
In these drive-away memories
Long stretch of lonely road
But I'll top Albuquerque pretty soon, I know
Moon rising, no tears so far
Eagles blarin' at the stars from my radio, making...
And if I get the urge to turn around
Hope I remember where I'm sittin' right now, making...
Chasin' the sunset with the top down
Clouds painting shadows on the desert ground
