lyrics

Blacktop Lullaby

She was a dreamer he was nobody's fool
They fell in love on the bus from school
Never thought she would settle down
She was amazed at the love she found
Crazy days driving all night
The end of the road is no where in sight

Chorus
The blacktop sings us a lullaby
Hands out the window trying to fly
Blacktop sings us a lullaby
I don't care where we end up tonight

Verse
She said yes and now they are two
Can't believe how fast they grew
Family portrait on the back glass
We still drive around just not as fast

Chorus
The blacktop sings us a lullaby
Hands out the window trying to fly
Blacktop sings us a lullaby
I don't care where we end up tonight

Bridge
This road of life has us all
I hope this engine never stalls

Verse
Left alone grown and gone
This highway still sings our song
Crazy days driving all night
The end of the road is nowhere in sight

Chorus
The blacktop sings us a lullaby
Hands out the window trying to fly
Blacktop sings us a lullaby
I don't care where we end up tonight
