Driving down a lonely two-lane highway
In eastern Oklahoma, it's a narrow winding road
Each passing mile, it leaves me feeling lighter
Shedding worries from my load
And this Saturday road, it leads me back to you
We can leave the world behind us for just a day or two
Sunday comes and it may take me far away
But with you here my heart will stay
'Til I see you next Saturday
All week long I've been straining at the fence
I feel like a prisoner locked inside
This daily grind where nothing quite makes sense
'Til I can chase these highway lines
Down a Saturday road that leads me back to you
We can leave the world behind us for just a day or two
Sunday comes and it may take me far away
But with you here my heart will stay
'Til I see you next Saturday
I see your long hair fall in ribbons to your back
I see you move and I'm aware of everything I lack
I see you in my mind along the long highway
One day I will be with you for more than just today
But this Saturday road, it leads me back to you
We can leave the world behind us for just a day or two
Sunday comes and it may take me far away
But with you here my love will stay
Until I come back one day
For a life of Saturdays
