Lyrics
I was driving back west through the patches of fog
Driving back west through foggy areas.
We had the brights turned on and we listened to songs
Using high beam lights while listening to music.
I didn't know it then but I was right where I needed to be
Realizing later that being there was necessary.
You were back at home you were working a job
You were at home, employed.
And you were hanging out nights with your friends at the bar
You spent time with friends at a bar.
You didn't know it then but you were right where you needed to be
Not aware then, but it was the right place for you.
When all you have is what's inside your pocket
When you have limited resources.
And all your dreams seem stuck up on the shelf
Dreams seem unattainable.
Well you'd best prepare the way for change is comin'
Prepare for change, as it's inevitable.
Cause the road will always take you somewhere else
Life's journey will lead you elsewhere.
I was waking up to the sound of the raindrops while you
Waking up to rain sounds.
Were in the southeast sleeping in truck stops
You were sleeping at truck stops in the southeast.
I didn't know it then but I was right where I needed to be
Realizing later it was the right place for you.
You were making friends with people I'd never meet and I was
You were making unfamiliar friends.
Praying to God that your band would succeed
Hoping for success for someone.
I didn't know it then but you were right where you needed to be
Not aware then, but it was the right place for them.
When all you have is what's inside your pocket
Having only limited resources.
And all your dreams seem stuck up on the shelf
Feeling dreams are unachievable.
Well you'd best prepare the way for change is comin'
Be ready for change.
Cause the road will always take you somewhere else
Life's journey will lead elsewhere.
Don't forget
Remember.
All you've ever wanted is yours
Your desires are attainable.
Well the east coast is busy and the west coast is wild
Describing different characteristics of U.S. coasts.
The south keeps it steady while the north rolls around
Various regions have distinct qualities.
And somewhere in the middle there are some towns that no one knows
Small towns where local events attract residents.
Where every local kid comes out to every local show
Community gatherings for local performances.
Oh the road will always take you somewhere
The journey always leads to new places.
