V1
I am driving desert highway
Left my house, without my shoes
Grabbed my money and a runaway bottle
To get some miles from you

Been down this road before
Each time would be the last
But when I reach one hundred miles
I wind up going back

I’m on mile twenty two
Too many lies
Too many reasons
To say goodbye

I’m on mile forty four
Forever empty days
Forever angry nights
Forever, I’m running away

C1
If I reach one hundred miles
I am never going back, to you
And you’ll only find us married
In your past

If I reach one hundred miles
I am never looking back, at you
And you’ll only see me
In ripped up photographs

V2
Mile sixty six
Six years, yesterday
Six anniversaries
Six thrown away

Mile eighty one
Pour me one, for the road
Pour me one, for the courage
One more, for being alone

C2
If I reach one hundred miles
I am never going back, to you
And you’ll only find us married
In your past

If I reach one hundred miles
I am never looking back, at you
And you’ll only see me
In ripped up photographs

Bridge
Ninety nine miles
Pulled off to the side of the road
Wiped my tears, laid my head on the wheel
The cars, went rushing by

As my map unfold
Your memory was growing old
Go west to the coast, north to the snow
I am the only one, that will ever know
Which way I go…

C3
If I reach one hundred miles
I am never going back, to you
And you’ll only find us married
In your past

If I reach one hundred miles
I am never looking back, at you
And you’ll only see me
In ripped up photographs
In burned up photographs

One two hundred miles
Three four hundred miles
Five six seven eight, nine hundred miles
Away from you, away from you
