Lyric discussion by santaanawindsblowin 

A girl with faraway eyes is a dreamer. She may be stuck in some crap town where only truckers bother to stop, but she sees beyond her world, sees beyond. You always notice her in a crowd because she seems like she's somewhere else, somewhere better, somewhere only she can see. If you can get that girl, she'll change your life, she'll change your luck, she'll turn your world upside down. If you can get the attention of the girl looking off to the horizon, you're someone special. Maybe she'll take you with her, where she's going', if you're lucky. Get a girl with faraway eyes. She'll turn your luck around if you can deserve her. Keep in dreamin'...

@santaanawindsblowin Ummm, can't agree with that. She's no dreamer, more likely a truck stop hooker who is weary of the life, but can't see past her limited options. My 2¢ anyway. Love this song, btw.
