One More Mile

Harder than that howling wind was blowing
His wet cigarette hit the dirt
Cursing at that big road train behind him
Pushing out the windshield with his shirt

He's shivering, still wishing for a fine day
But hears echos of her words 'I told you so'
Now the next town's only four miles down the highway
And there's more than one way he can go

Hes got one more mile to remember
Then two more miles to forget
And that last damn mile could be forever
If he hasn't forgotten her yet

When he dropped it on the map his hand felt lighter
But he felt so heavy just the same
A sliver stings but he grips the wheel tighter
Cause he knows there's no one else to blame

Hes got one more mile to remember
Then hes got two more miles to forget
And that last damn mile could be forever
If he hasn't forgotten her yet

Dreaming big was ok when it mattered
And she was all that mattered yesterday
The glass looked so familiar when it shattered
Now all he can do is just get on his way

Hes got one more mile to remember
Then hes got two more miles to forget
And that last damn mile could be forever
If he hasn't forgotten her yet
