About

A man driving home thinking how he is one more mile away from his darling's love

Lyrics

Verse 1

Midnight

White lines

Cutting through the heavy clay

Four hundred down

Just a hundred left to go

My eyes

Burning

Staring at the yellow paint

Hard rain

Falling

Wash away the highway dust

Verse 2

Coffee cold

Tired hands

Gripping on the steering wheel

Shifting

Checking clocks

Counting every minute lost

One mile

Closer

Leaning on the pedal now

Home soon

I promise

I can see your porch light

Chorus

One mile closer to your arms

One mile closer to the love

One mile closer to your arms

Your love

Sweet love

The kind of love that always cares

The kind of love that's always there

One mile closer to your arms

Post-Chorus

Mile by mile

Step by step

Coming home

Coming home

Verse 3

Warm skin

Soft smile

Waiting at the screen door

Watching

Waiting

Hoping for the engine sound

Heart beats

Heavy

Knowing that I’m almost there

Gone long

Too long

No more sleeping on the road

Chorus

One mile closer to your arms

One mile closer to the love

One mile closer to your arms

Your love

Sweet love

The kind of love that always cares

The kind of love that's always there

One mile closer to your arms

Bridge

I see it

I feel it

I know it

Your touch is waiting for me

The miles are behind us

The road is behind us

The dark is behind us

Just you and the morning

Guitar Solo

Chorus

One mile closer to your arms

One mile closer to the love

One mile closer to your arms

Your love

Sweet love

The kind of love that always cares

The kind of love that's always there

One mile closer to your arms

Outro

Almost home

In your arms

Finally home

In your love

Sweet love

Sweet love

One mile

One mile

I’m here
