Hiway Nights Lyrics

I Love this song! It has an urgent tempo as if one is in a hurry. Not sure here, but I think it's about the lonely life of being a truck driver. More than anything he just wants to get home to his Love. He seems to be tortured on the road by the lights and the sights that confine him to the eagle he belongs (his truck) which rolls him on his way.. but he is stuck in the 'time away' instead of where his heart is. I sense he has a fear that he is losing precious time because she longs to be with him too, but psychological time is a slow death on the road. Until reunion, the Freeway is my song and it leads my love light on!
