When I Get There

(Robyn Landis / Short & Sweet)
by Robyn Landis
Driving home real slow
Followed by a yellow moon
I'm thinking, thinking, always thinking
I'm headed somewhere soon

Driving home real slow
The road winds high and low
I meet the sky halfway
My wheels know where to go

Taking the long way again
I think these streetlights are my friends
Taking the long way again
not gonna stop till I'm really at the end

But I'll be there when I get there
I'll be there first in my dreams
I won't be home until I know
where these roads all lead
But I'll be there... when I get there...

Driving home real slow
Heart as black as the road
Heart as light as the sky
Some things I'm just starting to know

Driving home real slow
Everyone in bed-all those warm beds
My blanket is the heavens tonight
Don't want nothing else covering my head

Taking the long way again
I think these road signs are my friends
Taking the long way again
not gonna stop till I'm really at the end

But I'll be there...

And I'll ride the edge of that soft shoulder,
I'll feel the wind blow just a little colder
Think I'm gonna coast these back streets till I'm a little older

Driving home real slow
Night vision has kicked in
My senses are like radar now
I'm wide awake again

Driving even slower now
Shifting down still lower now
I'm crawling through these streets alone now
Only my heart can see me home now
Only my heart can see me home now
Only my heart can see me home
See me home...
