[Verse 1]
I used to think that I knew where I was headed
Lord knows I've been humbled and tested
You were the one who was better at believin'
Four hundred miles west and I turned right
Fast food on the Oklahoma turnpike
The road is a lover who's always leavin'

[Chorus]
God, I'm feelin' the miles
Missin' that gear that the years have stolen
Feelin' the miles
Still so far to go
I hum along to an old refrain
As the taillights glisten in the drizzlin' rain
And I say hello to another day

[Verse 2]
Feel the pull of the west wind blowin'
"Check engine" light's lit, but I'm rollin'
If I make Denver, then maybe I can rest some
Hero of my own hard luck story
Always hopin' there's somethin' more for me
A better answer to the same old questions

[Chorus]
God, I'm feelin' the miles
Missin' that gear that the years have stolen
Feelin' the miles
Still so far to go
I hum along to an old refrain
As the taillights glisten in the drizzlin' rain
And I say hello to another day
[Bridge]
There was a time when the miles didn't seem so long
And I knew that whatever else went wrong
I'd come home and find you waitin', waitin'

[Chorus]
God, I'm feelin' the miles
Feelin' the miles
God, I'm feelin' the miles
Missin' that gear that the years have stolen
Feelin' the miles
Still so far to go
I hum along to an old refrain
As the taillights glisten in the drizzlin' rain
And I say hello to another day
