“Every Mile a Memory” is the fourth single from his 2006 album, Long Trip Alone.
This is a song about a guy missing a girl as he takes that long drive. The circumstances of their parting are left unsaid; all the better to increase the listener’s interest.
The song has great imagery and it reminds...
[Verse 1]
Country roads, old theater marquee signs
Parking lots and billboards flying by
Spanish moss, little hick town squares
Wild roses on a river bank, girl, it's almost like you're there, oh
[Chorus]
Every mile, a memory, every song, another scene
From some old movie going back in time, you and me
Every day, a page turned down, every night, a lonesome sound
Like a freight train rolling through my dreams
Every mile, a memory
[Verse 2]
Red sun down out across the western sky
Takes me back to the fire in your eyes
Texas stars in a purple night
Not seeing 'em with you, baby, oh, they never do them right, no
[Chorus]
Every mile, a memory, every song, another scene
From some old movie going back in time, you and me
Every day, a page turned down, every night, a lonesome sound
Like a freight train rolling through my dreams
Every mile, a memory
[Bridge]
Funny how no matter where I run
'Round every bend I only see just how far I haven't come
[Chorus]
Every mile, a memory, every song, another scene
From some old movie going back in time
Every day, a page turned down, every night, a lonesome sound
Like a freight train rolling through my dreams
Every mile, a memory
[Outro]
Every mile, a memory
Every mile, a memory
