Well, it's half my heart and a little bit of soul   That makes me feel I've wanna ride this road   I wouldn't change it if I could      And me and this road you know   We've got an understanding   It won't leave me at home and I am   Too tired to do just what I should      And last night I asked if I could   Take comfort in the rosewood   The road said nothing at all      Well, 'cause it don't talk back   Unless the wind blows hard   I drive it all night with the wheel on my car   It won't leave me running for the door      And if the paint's still wet, I can just slow down   And it all goes away on the other side of town   And nothing is that easy anymore      Well, the hurt won't leave with the sight of white line   But it eases up my pain for a while   The only habit that I keep      And miles take time but the time is mine   And always moving suits me fine   I'll catch my breath when I sleep      And after all that I've done   I'm not half what I'd hope that I'd become   There's still a long way to go      Well, 'cause it don't talk back   Unless the wind blows hard   I drive it all night with the wheel on my car   It won't leave me running for the door      And if the paint's still wet, I can just slow down   And it all goes away on the other side of town   And nothing is that easy anymore      And last night I asked if I could   Take comfort in the rosewood   The road said nothing at all      Well, 'cause it don't talk back   Unless the wind blows hard   I drive it all night with the wheel on my car   It won't leave me running for the door      And if the paint's still wet, I can just slow down   And it all goes away on the other side of town   And nothing is that easy anymore      Yeah, 'cause it don't talk back   Unless the wind blows hard   I drive it all night with the wheel on my car   It won't leave me running for the door      And if the paint's still wet, I can just slow down   And it all goes away on the other side of town   And nothing is that easy anymore
