Lyrics:

I am a driver on a western highway
From the mountains to the sea
And there's a song on the western highway
That's saying I will be free

The sky is fading to the color of the valley
Dust of angels and dust of dreams
And your city lights will shine until tomorrow
And I will not be here

But your light is brighter than
Anything I've ever seen
And I hear your voice on every station
Singing out of your dreams

Here I am, on the road again
The song began and then in the end
I was standing by, I was standing by the sea

And by the roadside the trees are shimmering
Black and silver in the cold night air
And under the moon a new song is singing
Saying I will meet you there

And your light is brighter than
Anything I've ever seen
And I hear your voice on every station
Singing out of your dream

Here I am, on the road again
The song began but then in the end
I was standing by, I was standing by the sea

And your light is brighter than
Anything I've ever seen
And I hear your voice on every station
Singing out of your dreams

Here I am, on the road again
The song began and then in the end
I was standing by, I was standing by the sea
