I'm on my way to somewhere I've never been

somewhere these eyes have never seen

another winding road destination unknown

no address no post code another day a little further away

these broken lines will lead me home but not tonight

another voice at the end of this long distance phone line

a day a lifetime however long it takes for ever is not far enough away



[chorus]

bright lights shine in virgin eyes

tail lights red they fade away

this dashboard glow we'll drive all night

[counter chorus]

another day away eight days from home

there's so far so far to go

eight days from home



we'll drive all night until we can't drive any further

we'll drive all night until sleep is calling

we'll drive all night until the new day sunrise



I'm leaving home again when I'll come back I can't say for certain

I'll take my pen I'll write when I can thats a promise

My bags are packed my toothbrush a photograph postcards an august notion

My favourite T-shirt

This distance travelled I'm miles from home miles from what I know

Theres still so far to go



[chorus]

bright lights shine in virgin eyes

tail lights red they fade away

this dashboard glow we'll drive all night

[counter chorus]

another day away eight days from home

there's so far so far to go

eight days from home



Forever it seems won't be long enough



[outro]

Another day away eight days from home
