Lyrics
[verse]
The highway stretches out behind the glass
Miles of silence, miles of things that didn't last
I keep your photograph beneath the dash
Driving through the dust of what we had
[verse]
My love is like a desert wind that never rests
Chasing after shadows, failing every test
The radio is playing something slow and low
I'm carrying this heavy log of things I didn't know
[chorus]
And my love, my love is like a big log
Rolling down a river with no shore
My love, my love is a heavy log
I can't carry it alone anymore
[verse]
The mirror shows a stranger where your face should be
I'm drifting further from the girl who once loved me
The engine hums a lonely kind of song
Tell me how much longer I'll be holding on
[chorus]
And my love, my love is like a big log
Rolling down a river with no shore
My love, my love is a heavy log
I can't carry it alone anymore
[bridge]
Somewhere past the water, somewhere past the pines
There's a house still standing where the porch light shines
I'll keep on driving till the fuel runs dry
Chasing every reason, chasing every why
[chorus]
And my love, my love is like a big log
Rolling down a river with no shore
My love, my love is a heavy log
I can't carry it alone anymore
