I charged out on that interstate in a great big huff
The fight we had just made me feel I'd enough
I felt like drivin' anywhere if it left you far behind
And I hated you at exit fifty-nine
I pa**ed the cars I pa**ed the trucks I pa**ed 'em all
Saw you sittin' home just waitin' for my call
My angry heart would not allow an ounce of sympathy
It was could as ice at exit sixty-three
With every pa**in' mile the question seemed to grow
Who was right and who was wrong and who's to know
My anger turned to sorrow as the tears began to pour
What a tangled mind at exit eighty-four
The city slowly faded into farms and fields
The world took on a different point of view
I loosened up my grip around that steering wheel
And I wondered if you were sorry too
I rolled the window down at exit ninety-one
Felt the cool wind blowin' through my hair
I saw a crimson light embrace a setting sun
And suddenly I wished you were there
I couldn't wait to stop and find a telephone
To call you up and tell you I was comin' home
Funny how a ribboned road can make you change your mind
And I loved you at exit ninety-nine
Funny how a ribboned road can make you change your mind
I knew I loved you at exit ninety-nine
