There's a photograph of a dark eyed girl
on the dashboard as he drives into the night
the white lines on the highway seem to twist and swirl
as she dances through his mind
"Holding On To Yesterday"
on the radio always takes him back
to another time and place
long before she slipped between the cracks
Her dark eyes smolder
in his dreams
he aches to hold her
but she's lost in the wind
far away
all alone
in the cold
somewhere down the road
After all the miles and time
her memory never seems to fade
her kiss was like the sweetest wine
she was his muse in every song he played
he's always trying to get home
crossing all the bridges that still burn
in his heart he's always known
there's really no reason to return
Her dark eyes smolder
in his dreams
he aches to hold her
but she's lost in the wind
far away
all alone
in the cold
somewhere down the road
Nobody knows him
and nobody knows how he feels
he keeps on driving
chasing the sound of his wheels
nobody knows
no, nobody knows
Her dark eyes smolder
in his dreams
he aches to hold her
but she's lost in the wind
far away
all alone
in the cold
somewhere down the road
