I sent a postcard from somewhere else
But my mind is still tangled up in you
A thousand miles of dusty highway
But your memory is the only view
The roadside diners all taste the same
And the coffee is bitter as the morning air
I trace the lines of this wrinkled map
Just wishing that I could meet you there
The horizon is burning a sunset fire
But it is nothing compared to your evening glow
Every turn of the wheel pulls me closer to you
It is a secret that only the midnight knows
I need the touch of your skin right now
I need the whisper you leave on my neck
This distance is a river I am trying to cross
To fall in your arms and find what is left
Driving through the dark to you
Bringing all this love right back to you
The radio plays a familiar tune
A melody meant for a quiet room
I roll down the window to catch a breeze
But the wind only carries your sweet perfume
The horizon is burning a sunset fire
But it is nothing compared to your evening glow
Every turn of the wheel pulls me closer to you
It is a secret that only the midnight knows
I need the touch of your skin right now
I need the whisper you leave on my neck
This distance is a river I am trying to cross
To fall in your arms and find what is left
Driving through the dark to you
Bringing all this love right back to you
I am racing down the highway, chasing down the moon
This aching in my chest is singing out a tune
Every single shadow is painted with your face
You know Sayed is coming to claim this empty space
A craving for the passion, a hunger for the flame
And every single heartbeat is calling out your name
I left my heart on your side of the bed
Keep it warm for me until I arrive
I need the touch of your skin right now
I need the whisper you leave on my neck
This distance is a river I am trying to cross
To fall in your arms and find what is left
But my mind is still tangled up in you
A thousand miles of dusty highway
But your memory is the only view
The roadside diners all taste the same
And the coffee is bitter as the morning air
I trace the lines of this wrinkled map
Just wishing that I could meet you there
The horizon is burning a sunset fire
But it is nothing compared to your evening glow
Every turn of the wheel pulls me closer to you
It is a secret that only the midnight knows
I need the touch of your skin right now
I need the whisper you leave on my neck
This distance is a river I am trying to cross
To fall in your arms and find what is left
Driving through the dark to you
Bringing all this love right back to you
