One More Mile

[Verse 1] I left the valley just after the heat With a paper map folded beside me The radio knew what i needed to hear And the miles opened up like a country [Pre-Chorus] I used to ask where i ought to be Now i let the road answer me [Chorus] One more mile, one more song I’m finding out where i belong With the wheel in my hands and the day stretched wide I don’t need a reason to take this drive One more mile, the old doubts fall behind I’m getting to know this heart of mine [Verse 2] At a roadside stand near the county line I traded a joke for a peach and directions The woman there said, “you’ve got time enough” And i laughed at how much i believed her [Pre-Chorus] No one’s waiting to tell me the plan I can turn when i want, and i can [Chorus] One more mile, one more song I’m finding out where i belong With the wheel in my hands and the day stretched wide I don’t need a reason to take this drive One more mile, the old doubts fall behind I’m getting to know this heart of mine [Bridge] The playlist rolls into a song i know I sing every word past the grain fields Maybe freedom isn’t a far-off place Maybe it’s choosing what the next turn feels like [Final chorus] One more mile, one more song I’m finding out where i belong With the wheel in my hands and the day stretched wide I don’t need a reason to take this drive One more mile, and i’m changing in time I’m getting to know this heart of mine [Outro] One more mile, one more song The road goes on, and i go along
