Midnight North - The Highway Song Lyrics

We found ourselves somewhere in Virginia
On an early summer's day
We sang that night under the red club lights
And never looked away
Freer than birds living life
Exactly how we want
Up and down the coast playing show after show
Whistling a country song

You can look around in a crowded room
And I'm the only one you see
The music's fondly in my mind
But the energy still breathes
A life of constant movement
Makes you weary in your soul
Through thick and thin we'll keep a grin
And weather the push and pull

So meet me on a highway
Somewhere between Roanoke and Baltimore
We can sing some tunes like Johnny and June
And make the most of this time together
Meet me on a highway
Where the river meets the Mason Dixon Line
Climb on your bus write a song that we can sing
To them sweethearts together

I'm not ready to go
But there's no reason to stay here
You can live a vagabond life
But my roots tie me down to the floor
Yeah my roots tie me down to the floor
