2. I felt so good, like anything was possible. 

I hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes. 

The last three days the rain was unstoppable. 

It was always cold, no sunshine.

3. I rolled on as the sky grew dark. 

I put the pedal down to make some time. 

There's something good waiting down this road. 

I'm picking up whatever is mine. 

 

Refr. Yeah, runnin' down a dream that never would come to me, 

workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads.
