(P Medlen – Control / H James – J Albert & Sons)
Sold my soul to the highest bidder, found myself in the promised land
Trading truth for the smoke and mirrors and I played right into their hands
Caught the light through the dirty windscreen, the sun is here, I feel alive
I am through with the lonely winter, now there’s nothing left to do but drive
Lift my soul to the heavens like a swallow on the wind
Can you hear me down the highway
A thousand miles of missing you, now I’m coming home again
Heard them preach about forgiveness and salvation from my sins
Seems the bright lights couldn’t save me from the restlessness that’s underneath my skin
Lift my soul to the heavens like a swallow on the wind
Can you hear me down the highway
A thousand miles of missing you, now I’m coming home again
Out on the shoulder of west 205, it’s your voice coming over the line
I’m as close to full circle as I’ve ever been, maybe this is what redemption means
Lift my soul to the heavens like a swallow on the wind
Can you hear me down the highway
A thousand miles of missing you, now I’m coming home again
Oh leave a light on, oh leave a light on, oh leave a light on
A thousand miles of missing you
A thousand miles of missing you, now I’m coming home again
