Am I in your fast life?
Am I in your dreams
It seems you never let me stay
I could say I'm happy
I could lie and say you're never in my dreams
It seems you never let me stay

I don't wanna waste another moment missin' you
I know it's not close
But I'm gonna drive four days, six highways to you
Maybe I could pick you up and take you

Ho-o-o-o-o-o-o-ome

I need to let you get away
Maybe I was foolish
Thinkin' I could be okay with just a dream
I need to let you get away

Please don't go and waste another moment missin' me
I know it's not close
But I'm gonna drive four days, six highways to you
Maybe you could pick me up and take me

I hope that you know I never wanted this to end
I hope that you know that this is never gonna end

I know that I'm never gonna feel this way for someone else
I know that you're never gonna feel this way about me
