| Lyrics: | Fifteen hours flyin down the blacktop Don’t know where I’m goin but I can’t stop Sun’s coming up and I’m finally breakin free The highway sign’s My only guide I’m seein things in a different light Lookin in my rearview /You’re I got a clear view Everything’s gonna be alright I’m movin out I’m moving on Ain’t comin back Cause I’m already long gone The open road is callin Gonna take some time and take it all in Every mile I drive You’ll be one more mile left behind The highway Is my way Gonna show ya how to outrun a heartache (I’m) doing 85 through every small town Don’t seem like I’m ever gonna slow down Ain’t gonna stop til I drive you out of my mind You’re fadin fast Into the past I started healin’ when I hit the gas Lovin’ you was too hard Had to make a fresh start This goodbye’s gonna be last Chorus Written by Dave Tough, Rich Fagan & Jeff Knisley |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
