push the pedal to the floor the u haul starts to fly bland ohio countryside is swiftly sliding by in the rearview i can see clouds of what we used to be and those clouds start to spread but the sunrise lies ahead yeah the western sky is black but i m never looking back cause i got my eyes on the road and the blue horizon speeding in these mountain hills a fog drifts through my mind distant echoes in my ear of the life i left behind miles from everything i know with a million miles to go but this mist cant wash away thoughts of you and yesterday but my mind will soon be clear and this fog will disappear cause i ll keep my eyes on the road and the blue horizon all these roads you ve led me down twists and turns youve sped me through all the detours and mistakes all the times i ve hit the brakes brought me winding back to you well you stole those seven years blink my eyes and they were gone but i m finally changing gears i m driving on as the skyline comes in view brand new city welcomes me in this maze of glass and steel for the first time i feel free not a victim of my past now i m moving on at last true i m traveling alone but at least my life s my own now i ll mend my broken heart and ill make a brand new start cause ive got my eyes on the road yeah i ve got my eyes on the road yeah ive got my eyes on the road and the blue horizon and the blue horizon and the blue horizon
