There's a long white line stretching out on the road ahead And there ain't one magazine that I ain't read I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio Singing soft and low [Chorus:] We're so far apart This old highway ain't home When the heartache starts I just turn the radio on There never seems to be time for me and you That's a price you pay for the life you choose Tonight's the loneliest night I've ever known It just goes on and on [Chorus] It does my heart good to see you shine So I'll just keep on counting these white lines I haven't seen you in weeks but I hear you on the radio Calling me back home [Chorus to fade]
