Thousand Miles to Go Lyrics

Well, there′s no time like the present
To get you through your past
I'm nowhere near the future
But I′m gonna get there fast
I'm movin' on, I′m movin′ on
Well, I've just passed Albuquerque
And somehow you′re still near
I guess the objects in the mirror
Are closer than they appear
I'm movin′ on, I'm movin′ on

And I'll know it when I get there
But I don't think I′m getting close
There′s a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I've cried a thousand miles of tears
I′ve got a thousand miles to go

They say life is like a highway
And sometimes the road gets rough
Girl, you're like a twister
And I can′t drive fast enough
I'll keep on until you′re gone
When I hit the water
And there's no place left to go
I'll hang a left in this old′vette
And head toward Mexico
You′ll be gone, but not for long

And I'll know it when I get there
But I don′t think I'm getting close
There′s a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I've cried a thousand miles of tears
I′ve got a thousand miles to go

And I'll know it when I get there
But I don't think I′m getting close
There′s a place without your memory
Somewhere down the road
I've cried a thousand miles of tears
I′ve got a thousand miles to go

Go, oh oh
Yeah
Here I go
Oh baby
Gonna keep on movin'
Headin′ down that road
I'm drivin′ baby
Drivin' is the code
Gonna keep on movin' baby
Headin′ down that road
Down the road
Don′t know when I'll get there
Hope I get there fast
Headin′ down the highway
Hope that I don't drive right past
I′m gettin' closer
I′m gettin' closer
Won't be long
Baby, you′ll be gone
