Asphalt Dream Lyrics

Michael Tomlinson Asphalt Dream

Nothing but you and me living good, living free
Oh lead us back on the highway
On this reckless day everything that we need
Is in this wind blowing our way
And we may not know how to survive in this cold
And lonely way we go
But it's often not lonely and it seldom is cold
If you'll hold onto me I don't mind growing old
Oh on the highways on this asphalt dream that leads me
I was young and green when I left and I found
A new life on the highway
It was only me but I knew that someday
There'd be a woman running beside me
But what I did not know is that love would be
So much a part of our freeway
We have walked in the mountains and run in the rain
Given time on this earth we would do it all again
Oh on the highway on this asphalt dream that leads me
I can hear it, I can hear the highway call
You can see them, headlights on the canyon wall
Nothing but you and me living good living free
Oh lead us back on the highway
On this reckless day everything that we need
Is in this wind blowing our way
And we may not know how to survive in this cold
And lonely way we go
But it's often not lonely and it seldom is cold
If you'll hold onto me I don't mind growing old
Oh on this highway on this asphalt dream that leads me
On the highway on this asphalt dream that leads me
Sail along a highway line
You and I were made to ride away
