Close your eyes, can you see me?   Rollin' down the Rocky mountains,    moving like the wind that sweeps the Kansas plains.   I know you're with me   as I make my way thru Oklahoma,   past the barns and weathervanes.   There are motels, cafes, fields and billboard signs,   a thousand miles of highway between your heart and mine.      There will finally come a moment   when one man and one woman   get everything they've be waiting for.   I'll take you in my arms again,   feel your skin against my skin,   let the sheet fall slowly to the floor   til nothing comes between us anymore.      In my soul,    I can feel you   as I cross the Mississippi   you're the river flowing in me.   Coming home,    I count each heartbeat   til the moment we're together   and the distance can be measured.   That's all that keeps me going when I'm gone.      There will finally come a moment   when one man and one woman    get everything they've been waiting for.   I'll take you in my arms again,   feel your skin against my skin,   let the sheet fall slowly to the floor,   til nothing comes between us anymore.
