Exit 99

I charged out on that interstate in a great big huff

The fight we had just made me feel I'd enough

I felt like drivin' anywhere if it left you far behind

And I hated you at exit fifty-nine

I passed the cars I passed the trucks I passed 'em all

Saw you sittin' home just waitin' for my call

My angry heart would not allow an ounce of sympathy

It was could as ice at exit sixty-three

With every passin' mile the question seemed to grow

Who was right and who was wrong and who's to know

My anger turned to sorrow as the tears began to pour

What a tangled mind at exit eighty-four

The city slowly faded into farms and fields

The world took on a different point of view

I loosened up my grip around that steering wheel

And I wondered if you were sorry too

I rolled the window down at exit ninety-one

Felt the cool wind blowin' through my hair

I saw a crimson light embrace a setting sun

And suddenly I wished you were there

I couldn't wait to stop and find a telephone

To call you up and tell you I was comin' home

Funny how a ribboned road can make you change your mind

And I loved you at exit ninety-nine

Funny how a ribboned road can make you change your mind

I knew I loved you at exit ninety-nine
