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
