This is a tour-life anthem, from someone who lives their life on the road to someone they love – romantic or otherwise – and how distance and life experiences can strain these relationships and cause tension, misunderstanding, and heartache. But in the end, they’ll always come back home.
[Verse 1: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn]
You've grown irrational
I'm too selfish to let myself flourish
Stuck at the bottom, yeah
But I'm fine with where my whole world is
I'd like to think that my body’s out there somewhere
Alive and breathing
But my soul is a race and you envy the pace
Of this life I'm leading
[Pre-Chorus: Tyler Carter]
Be a little stronger in your mind
You can hold the weight of time, oh whoa
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
I try making it easy on you
What more can I say or do?
You only see half of what's there
Just hold on, you know me better, better
Highway love’s gonna mess me up (Alright, alright)
Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright)
Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright)
Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust
I'll be home soon
[Verse 2: Tyler Carter; Michael Bohn]
Throwing names and drawing lines
Impossible when you mix your jealousy with mine
I'm on the phone and you're hating me
There's a million bottles and I'm trying to free
My head of all this chaos
There's a hook, but you don't let me off, no
You don't take my word for an answer
It's hard to choose from the life I live
And the one I love, either way I'll lose
I know you're gonna use this against me
I'm stuck with the burden, you're stuck with the envy
[Pre-Chorus: Tyler Carter]
Be a little stronger in your mind
You can hold the weight of time (Oh)
And if I'm holding you back, let me know
What's complicated should be so simple
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
I try making it easy on you
What more can I say or do?
You only see half of what's there
Just hold on, you know me better, better
Highway love's gonna mess me up (Alright, alright)
Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright)
Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright)
Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust
I'll be home soon
[Bridge: Tyler Carter]
Baby love
West coast days go by so damn slow
Caught up in the star glow
West coast days go by so damn slow
Caught up in the star glow (Star glow)
Your intuition's problematic
When I just wanna lose myself
In the city of angels
I'm thrown
[Chorus: Tyler Carter]
I try making it easy on you
What more can I say or do?
You only see half of what's there
Just hold on, you know me better, better
Highway love's gonna mess me up (Alright, alright)
Nights like these when I need your touch (Alright, alright)
Kicking it high in the back of my bus (Alright, alright)
Thinking 'bout you, while you're thinking 'bout trust
I'll be home soon
