Mile Marker

State lines aren't the only boundaries
I've crossed recently
But these exit signs miles away
keep reminding me that I'm coming home to see you
But never left behind
thoughts a certain girl somehow planted in my mind
Thoughts we played out before but feel so new
Any direction I go will always
bring me back to you
So I count another mile marker
On my way through Pennsylvania
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1"
One last phone call just to hear you voice
Since I have a choice
I won't say goodbye
'Cause I'll see you soon
All the leaves have turned
from green to brown and hit the ground
Since I've seen your face
It's your favorite time of the year
A time a postcard can't replace
And though the months change
It's safe to say I won't
I've found a place I finally belong to
It can't be found on a map
It's always been right next to you
So I count another mile marker
On my way through Pennsylvania
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1"
One last phone call just to hear you voice
Since I have a choice
I won't say goodbye
'Cause I'll see you soon
All of this time
I've used up all of my mind
to find a way to you
If you're singing along
I hope that you know that this song
is just one of the things I'll give you
All of this time
I've used up all of my mind
to find a way to you
If you're singing along
I hope that you know that this song
is just one of the things I'll give you
So I count another mile marker
On my way through Pennsylvania
"5, 4, 3, 2, 1"
One last phone call just to hear you voice
Since I have a choice
I won't say goodbye
'Cause I'll see you soon
Soon enough I'll find the place where you are
'Cause the mile marker's bringing me home
I'll see you soon
