Lyrics

He went for a drive on I-55 and stayed straight for about 1,000 miles
She a deep breath in, tried to forget again but couldn’t seem to get it off her mind

The wheels they turned, the gas it burned
Till the shadows of buildings covered up his eyes
He stood alone on streets of stone
To the city he looked up and cried

“I’m gone for good or am I good for gone?
I don’t know but this place is where I belong
I’ll try to find some peace of mind
I’ll stay here until the silence comes”

A ticket in her hand, a head full of plans, she left that place and didn’t bat an eye
Everyone just stared like a bright shimmering glare
She’s more beautiful than the sun the clouds the sky

The engines hummed till the night had won and the city lights twinkled in her eyes
When the girl touched land she held out her hands and to the city she looked up and cried

“I’m gone for good or am I good for gone?
I don’t know but this place is where I belong
I’ll try to find some peace of mind
I’ll stay here until the silence comes”
