The heart of the city's got no heart at all
They never understand the dreams of people like me
Meet me tonight where the highways collide
I'll have my face in the wind
And I ain't turning back till I'm free
When I was seventeen I had a great big dream
About a better life
Gonna leave this town and I won't slow down
Till I'm out of sight
And I've been running and riding
Across state lines I'm flying
These two wheels know just where I'm bound
By this time tomorrow
I'll be time zones away
Before anyone knows I'm gone
If wishes were Harleys
We all would ride
My dreams are a ticket
To the other side of this life
If you're sick and tired
The way you've been living
Just jump on up behind me
And leave it all behind you tonight
Sometimes when my head is on fire
I feel I can be any man
Who ever longed to dare the distance
In a one man caravan
And I've been running and riding
Across state lines I'm flying
These two wheels know just where I'm bound
By this time tomorrow
I'll be time zones away
Before anyone knows I'm gone
I know I got a reason
I'm through wasting my days and nights
Yeah, the city's just a jungle of indifference
Can't see the light
You know I found a new stretch of highway
To tear those chains off of me
Going to leave this town and I won't look back
Till I'm out of sight
And I've been running and riding
Across state lines I'm flying
These two wheels know just where I'm bound
By this time tomorrow
I'll be time zones away
And I've been running and riding
Across state lines I'm flying
These two wheels know just where I'm bound
By this time tomorrow
I'll be time zones away
Before anyone, before anyone knows I'm gone
