I heard the song of midnight wheels
Sound the way that loneliness feels
So many roads I’ve wandered down
Just to be a stranger in every town

When I was young the city lights
Called to me like false friends at night
I’ve followed down this road so far
Only to chase one more fallen star

CH–
Out on the midnight highway
Longer than I meant to be
I rode high around the world but all I wanna do
Is walk down the road that leads home to you

Now I’ve seen fame and wealth untold
I’ve left behind what I could not hold
I’m traveling light I’ll see you soon
But for tonight it’s only me and the moon

CH–
Out on the midnight highway
Longer than I meant to be
I rode high around the world but all I wanna do
Is walk down the road that leads home to you
I rode high around the world but all I wanna do
Is walk down the road that leads home to you
