I'm fading out of sight   My wheels are the only sound   Runnin' at the speed of sight   I can't slow down      Out on the open road   Racing to beat the night   No matter where I go   Guess I'll get there all right      So why don't I understand   What's trippin' me up   It used to be a simple thing      I can't hold on, I can't return   Time to let go, start to live and learn      I took the one way flight   Too high to see the ground   Now I know how long it takes   A heart to come down      Why don't I understand   What's trippin' me up   It ought to be a simple thing      I can't hold on, I can't return   Time to let go, start to live and learn      I can't hold on, I can't return   Rivers will run, bridges will burn   I'm not sure just how   But there's no lookin' back now
