Standing Still

Here comes that highway honey
Ain’t much behind us but the road
That rearview mirrors funny
It’s all fogged up and it ain’t even cold
Pretty soon I’ll hit the gas baby
I’ll admit this drivin’ fast is a chore

That man that drives the slow lane
He takes his time and that’s for sure
I do admire patience
But sometimes I’ve got to ask for more
This ain’t no treadmill baby
This here’s a trip around the world

But I won’t pass on no curve
And I won’t pass on no hill
I won’t pass’em till I’m sure
I can pass’em like they’re standin’ still
I can pass’em like they’re standin’ still

Blow a kiss and wave goodbye babe
Roll the window down and touch the wind
I know you worry honey
That you won’t see that place again
We’ll come around when time permits us
Until then the distance is your friend

Absence makes the heart grow fonder
So you and I don’t have to wonder far
To see ourselves as one together
You look so brave and beautiful
This ain’t no treadmill baby
This here’s a trip around the world
