Rain coming in my window Sleeping in someone else's bed Forgot how long I've been gone But no one's worried about me yet I'll start walking westward And I'll be home by summertime I left town at six this morning Forgot to say goodbye I doubt she'll be missing me But she was kind enough to lie It's lonely walking westward But I'll be home by summertime Ain't no highway could bring me down And no one's waiting up for me in town Just a tourniquet as my spirit spills out All along this road If only I knew where to go I stopped in the city With time to look around I don't know my destination But I know where I'm bound I keep walking westward I'll be home by summertime Ain't no highway could bring me down And no one's waiting up for me in town Just a tourniquet as my spirit spills out All along this road If only I knew where to go Ain't no highway could bring me down And no one's waiting up for me in town Just a tourniquet as my spirit spills out All along this road If only I knew where to go I just hit the ocean God, it's been years No breeze is quite as heavy No lake is quite as clear Ain't no further westward I'll call it home for summertime Ain't no highway could bring me down And I'm sure there's a lot to see in town The future's just a mile marker Somewhere down the road Come winter, maybe I'll try Mexico
