 Night was fallin', the horizon was callin', as we drove into the setting sunGoin' back to that country that we still call homeSaid good bye to the capital city, yeah this town has got me on the runI need to spend some time out in the great unknown.
I'm lookin' for sweet inspiration, every morning noon and nightBut these days it just keeps on passing me by,
I know you don't feel like making this journey, but you know that time is on my sideI can't go on living like a refugeeWay down south where the living is easy, we can look across the great divideBut all we've got is a pocketful of memories.
We stood on the motorway shoulder as the sun rose over the lowland hillsAnd my heart broke down, when I looked at youDon't tell me you're leavin' me now, when you know how hard I've been tryin'Darling you're my world, don't bring it all tumbling downIt's only the code of the road, and the sound of a motor wheel cryin'Don't renege my love, don't bring it all tumbling down.
One more morning, yes another day dawning, and I'm looking at a bird that singsWish I could change my whole life, and just fly awayOver the mountains down through the valleys, through the homeland of the Celtic kingsNow it's just the frontline for the U.S.A..
We live in a time when the spirit of love and devotion is breakin' downAnd my heart broke down when I looked at youDon't tell me you're leavin' me now, when you know how hard I've been tryin'Darling you're my world, don't bring it all tumbling downIt's only the code of the road, and the sound of a motor wheel cryin'Don't renege my love, don't bring it all tumbling down.
