It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone
I look around my life tonight and you are gone
i might have done something to keep you if I'd known
How unhappy you'd become
Well I was dreaming of you
With my heart in your hands
And I was following through
With my beautiful plans
Yeah, now I'm rolling down this canyon drive
With your laughter in my head
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
'cuz those dreams are dead
But I'm alive
I want to go where I will never hear your name
I want to lose my sorrow and be free again
And I know I've been insane
When I think of the places I could've been
But I was dreaming of you
With my heart in your hands
And I was following through
With my beautiful plans
(solo)
Standing here by the highway side
Watching these trucks blow by
Inches from my face
Yeah, thinking about the time I've wasted
(Dreaming of you)
And the pleasure we once tasted
(Dreaming of you)
Looking up and down this road
(Following through)
I've been here before
(Following through)
Can't be here no more
(Dreaming of you)
(Dreaming of you)
Yeah, now I'm rolling down this California five
With your laughter in my head
Gonna have to block it out somehow to survive
'cuz those dreams are dead
But I'm alive
Look at the way I believed in you and loved you all these years
Now you could fill a swimming pool with all my salty tears
You told me what was in your heart but baby you lied
And I thought that it would kill me, but I'm alive!
