lyrics

5000 Miles
by Frank Critelli

She likes to ride shotgun with her toes up on the dash, one arm out the window, and the iPad on her lap. And I'll look at her, and she'll look at me, and we'll both begin to smile. And it's been that way since yesterday and 700 miles.

I prefer the driver's seat with both hands on the wheel, soaking up the scenery, and getting to what's real. And she'll look at me, and I'll look at her, and we'll both begin to smile. And it's been that way since yesterday and 1300 miles.

As we go driving and chasing the horizon, what we're finding challenges our reason. We might be learning something, but it's hard to tell...we're still searching for God, each other, and ourselves.

So we paid the toll and crossed the border, then nothing seemed the same. Physically we may return, but spiritually we've changed. So look at us, we're looking at you, and there's nothing to do but smile. And it's been that way since yesterday, and 3500 miles.

As we go driving and chasing the horizon, what we're finding challenges our reason. We might be learning something, but it's hard to tell...we're still searching for God, each other, and ourselves.

From the sunrise to the sunset, from the end back to the start...we circle toward to destination closer to the heart. Eyes up ahead, feet on the ground, each experience on file. And we'll remember every day for 5000 miles.

As we go driving and chasing the horizon, what we're finding challenges our reason. We must be learning something, but it's hard to tell...we're still searching for God, each other, and ourselves.
