I looked out the window
But all the land was dark
I asked no one in particular
"Where do you think we are"
Well, we're somewhere
On a great highway in America
200 miles from nowhere
On a great highway in America

I've been asleep for hours
But I don't feel like I got any rest
I'm lonesome for the woman I love
It just adds to this restlessness
Is she thinking of me
on this great highway in America?
A starless black sky and me
Somewhere in America

I can feel the chill
of lost and alone
And I feel like going home
I feel like going home
There's nothing I can do
It just ain't that easy, man
There's a job to do
No matter how I ache
No matter how I long for you
I feel like going home
Nothing I can do

Out of the east
Light breaks off the morning sun
There's a dim crescent moon on the run
And it takes my breath away
This brand new day in America
Still I miss her and I wish
We were in the same place
Anyplace in America

I can feel the chill
of lost and alone
And I feel like going home
I can feel the chill
of lost and alone
And I feel like going home
