Forty-six years man too damn long
Driving this Chevy truck with trailer in tow
Driving from Minnesota tires hum along
Eyes bleary but heart pounding like a song
Houston Texas waits for me
Old love still burns wild and free
Ain't seen her since the age of nineteen
Dreaming of hugs and kisses under that tree
Hit the road long stretch never ends
Dark nights no lights curves and bends
Count the miles till I see her again my first love all this pain
Snow and rain tried to wash me away
Kept on driving never did sway
Smile lighting up my way
Forty-six years and just one more day
Heartbeats matching to the wheels' roll
Every bump every mile every toll
Closer to she's my soul
Love's a journey where we ain't alone
Hit the road long stretch never ends
Dark nights no lights curves and bends
Count the miles till I see her again
My first love all this pain
