Lyrics:
We set out five years ago
not sure where the road would go
Highway miles, highway dreaming
We seen Oklahoma rain
Lafayette in spring
and an empty road
before the morning
And I know that I'm not easy
Nothing worth much ever is
Won't you take my silver ring
it's all I have to give
Trails of torn up engine parts,
busted glass and broken hearts,
beat up, broke, broke-down, and drunk on crazy
Montana almost killed us both
New York keeps her secrets close
And the stars way down in Texas still amaze me
And I know that you ain't easy
Nothing worth much ever is
I will take your silver ring
It's all you had to give
Miles and cigarettes, thicker skin and no regrets
The cold inside my bones begins to fade
Same old jeans, some other town,
tear it up then tear it down,
looks like I lost my crown along the way
We set out five years ago
down the only road I know
with the engine humming soft the myth of leaving
We stood on three coasts and prayed,
stood on three coasts and weighed
the high price of still believing
And I know that this ain't easy
Nothing worth much ever is
I still have my silver ring and he's got his
We set out five years ago
not sure where the road would go
Highway miles, highway dreaming
We seen Oklahoma rain
Lafayette in spring
and an empty road
before the morning
And I know that I'm not easy
Nothing worth much ever is
Won't you take my silver ring
it's all I have to give
Trails of torn up engine parts,
busted glass and broken hearts,
beat up, broke, broke-down, and drunk on crazy
Montana almost killed us both
New York keeps her secrets close
And the stars way down in Texas still amaze me
And I know that you ain't easy
Nothing worth much ever is
I will take your silver ring
It's all you had to give
Miles and cigarettes, thicker skin and no regrets
The cold inside my bones begins to fade
Same old jeans, some other town,
tear it up then tear it down,
looks like I lost my crown along the way
We set out five years ago
down the only road I know
with the engine humming soft the myth of leaving
We stood on three coasts and prayed,
stood on three coasts and weighed
the high price of still believing
And I know that this ain't easy
Nothing worth much ever is
I still have my silver ring and he's got his
