Lyrics
[verse]
Packed my bag before the sun came up
Left a note beside the coffee cup
Everybody said I'd change my mind
But I've been chasing highways all this time
Got my boots on, engine running warm
Chasing something better than the norm
[chorus]
I'm ready to run, ready to fly
Watch this town get smaller in my eye
Got the wind behind me, dust behind my wheel
Nothing in this world's gonna tell me how to feel
Ready to run, ready to go
Following a road that I don't know
[verse]
They all said settle down, find a name
Live inside the same old picture frame
But my heart was built for open sky
Not for standing still and wondering why
Every mile is teaching me to fly
Every sunset is a fresh goodbye
[chorus]
I'm ready to run, ready to fly
Watch this town get smaller in my eye
Got the wind behind me, dust behind my wheel
Nothing in this world's gonna tell me how to feel
Ready to run, ready to go
Following a road that I don't know
[bridge]
Maybe someday I'll come back around
Tell the story of the ground I found
But tonight the highway's calling clear
And I'm not staying one more year
[chorus]
I'm ready to run, ready to fly
Watch this town get smaller in my eye
Got the wind behind me, dust behind my wheel
Nothing in this world's gonna tell me how to feel
Ready to run, ready to go
Following a road that I don't know
