Two a.m. in Austin that truck Stop looks promising But don't they all That Silver Eagle's slowing down Maybe there'll be time enough to call I don't want to wake him But if I wait later then I'll miss my chance I just want to hear his voice I've just got to know he understands I send my love across the line The road leads back to us Until then I send my love across the line I wish that I could be there to show him That he is where I'd rather be But for now these words along the wire Will have to take the place of me I wonder if we ever know The reasons why we take the roads That drive us on When all that really matters Are the ones we always leave behind at home I send my love across the line The road leads back to us Until then I send my love across the line The road leads back to us Until then I send my love across the line
