There's just no way to tie a river down no way to hold back the wind
|
Rrain is gonna fall where it wants to fall and like the sun I'm gonna shine it on again
|
|
The only life I've ever known is driftin' a little somethin' I've picked up from my dad
|
Watchin' the sunset from a town he'd never been was the only dream he ever had
|
I guess this way of life rubbed off on me cause when I stay in one place too long
|
I start to hear the strains of a distant melody
|
And I'm off to sing that old highway song
|
There's just no way...
|
|
Once I met a girl in Colorado and I thought for a chance I'd settled down
|
But just when I thought I would make it I was on the highway leadin' out of town
|
Cause wonderin' where that long road would take me
|
Has its own special brand of charm
|
And it doesn't matter how much I'd like to I can't stay too long in one pair of arms
|
There's just no way...
|
There's just no way...
