Well the drums rolled off in my forehead And the guns went off in my chest Remember carrying the baby for you Crying in the wilderness I lost track of my friends, I lost my kin I cut them off as limbs I drove out over the flatlands Hunting down you and him The sky was big and empty My chest filled to explode I yelled my insides out at the sun At the wide open road It's a wide open road, it's a wide open road How do you think it feels Sleeping by yourself? When the one you love, the one you love Is with someone else Then it's a wide open road It's a wide open road And now you can go any place That you ever wanted to go I wake up in the morning Thinking I'm still by your side I reach out just to touch you Then I realise It's a wide open road It's a wide open road
