When I'm lonesome and I'm far from home And in the night some whistle cries I get real quiet and I think of you And I can close my eyes Out on some wind blown interstate Where the eighteen wheeler flies I think of you, I hear you laugh And I can close my eyes When the day is full of stranger's faces And angels in disguise It's then I know you would be proud of me And I can close my eyes I walk the streets, the shadows fall The sun sets low in the sky My rambling rolls me right back to you And I can close my eyes Sometimes my heart runs away from this life But your love knows where it hides Calls me back, holds me now So I can close my eyes I wake up scared, sometimes I do Feel the worries in me ride I hear the song that you sing to our children And I can close my eyes
