There's a long white line stretching out on the road ahead

And there ain't one magazine that I ain't read

I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio

Singing soft and low

[Chorus]

We're so far apart

This old highway ain't home

When the heartache starts

I just turn the radio on

There never seems to be time for me and you

That's a price you pay for the life you choose

Tonight's the loneliest night I've ever known

It just goes on and on

[Chorus]

It does my heart good to see you shine

So I'll just keep on counting these white lines

I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio

Calling me back home

[Chorus to fade]
