I've been On this road Where the nights' end seems so old It seems so cold I've been Contemplating turning This car around And never coming back Yeah, she wants Me to stay Yeah, she wants Me to stay Moonlight In my mirror Paints a picture on my face She's foreign land Ten thousand miles of open sand This highway Keeps me searching For a place to call my own Like a desert wind She's drifting out my mind and back again Every city sign reminds me We're losing time We're losing time A cigarette lighter burns a warm red glow 'Gainst a picture of you I'd rather not know I'd rather not know Still, she wants me to stay Yeah, she wants me to stay Moonlight In my mirror Paints a picture on my face She's foreign land Ten thousand miles of open sand And this highway Keeps me searching For a place to call my own Like a desert wind She's drifting out my mind and back again I stop to stretch my limbs This blood is flowing thinner Ain't seen a soul for miles and miles and miles This gem fire's growing dim I'm slowly realizing This is right where she wants me to be, yeah! Oh! Moonlight In my mirror Paints a picture on my face She's foreign land Ten thousand miles of open sand And this highway Keeps me searching For a place to call my own Like a desert wind She's drifting out my mind and back again
