The Open Road - Blackstrap

Here I am in this old town Still dreaming of the open road I've been here for far too long There's so much more than this, I know It's been years since I've been gone I miss the way it feels to roam This urge that's grown inside my heart To pack my bags and hit the road I'm dreaming of the road again Set free in the wind Feels like we've found home again On the road that's grown within We will fill the tank and make our way Down windy tracks and beaten roads We'll drive away from this old town And find a place, we've never known With the summer sun over open plains With the windows down, we'll drive along And our hearts will grow as our troubles fade away I'm dreaming of the road again Set free in the wind Feels like we've found home again On the road that's grown within Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh I'm dreaming of the road again Set free in the wind Feels like we've found home again On the road that's grown within

Shrunken head and Mardi gras beads Hanging on a rear view mirror that bleeds Keeping her eyes on the open road No telling where that son a bitch goes Got her doors locked doing seventy five Donâ

Before the walls come curmbling Down around our feet; Before the empires fall And Hell enslaves the free; Before our time runs out The spells must soon be cast; We'll raise the banners high And storm the gates at last. Tonight we fight. The Norns decide our fate. Fight well in Hell! Open the Gates! This night the Gates of Hell Come crashing to the ground. The sword Excalibur Was lost but now is found. Arthurs does rise again, The Dragons Lord of old. Just like the Bards have said In all the tales they told. Tonight we fight. The Norns decide our fate. Fight well in Hell! Open the Gates!

As I ride this lonesome highway The desert wind across my face My mind it slowly wanders To another time another place When the world was so much younger With no reasons to hold back And we were'nt so afraid of losing All the things we'd never had *Those day's are gone forever Time to kiss the past goodbye Meet me out tonight on the open road And baby we belong together And if I had you by my side Meet me out tonight on the open road You had a dream you once beleived in That burned inside you like a fire And that big wheel kept on turnin Somehow that dream it passed you by Now that fire just keeps on burning Leaves only hunger and desire Gotta find yourself a new dream And just leave the rest behind *Repeat Somewhere over the horizon Where the darkness meets the light We'll marry all our dreams together Out on this open road tonight *Repeat Baby we belong together Time to kiss the past goodbye Meet me out tonight on the open road
