Mile after mile fades away
As I race the daylight
Yawn as the dawn hits my face
Proof I’m OK
Despite the wreck I left behind
You won’t see me cry
Just thank God I’m alive
And keep on driving
No one along for the ride
No home fires aglow
Just a cold, empty seat at my side
As treasure in tow
If there’s a trick I haven’t tried
To keep her from crying
It just ain’t come to mind
So I keep on driving
Lights on the highway…
“Don’t live on the sidelines!”
Despite the wreck I left behind
You won’t see me cry
Just thank God I’m alive
And keep on driving
Who knows what I’ll find
Keep on driving
Christ knows that I tried
Keep on driving…
