Through the middle of the night unknown And I'll ride The sun has opened up my eyes And I don't want to leave your side For that lonesome road But here I go Climbing back behind the wheel of 50 feet of chrome and steel and a load They need in Chicago

Three thousand miles over the ocean From Liverpool to Tokyo What a way to go From distant lands one woman one man Let the four winds blow Three thousand light years from the land of the rising sun Love has opened up my eyes Love has blown right through

Until I'm back in your arms again I'll be out here on the wind Through the middle of the night unknown I'm an asphalt cowboy Born to run underneath the stars Pay no mind to my lonely heart The sun has opened up my eyes
