lyrics

i've come so far and it's gotten me nowhere,
guess you can't outrun the past.
My shoes are worn for i won't tread lightly
and it all moves so fast,

with my arms 'round the sky i cannot embrace it
wind on my lips but i can't taste it
i'm gaining on sorrow though i don't chase it, i'm
keeping my eyes on the horizon

from sun up to sun down there's only highway
makes you feel too big and too small
in the morning i'm a beggar with hands overflowing
by night a queen with nothing at all

with my arms 'round the sky...

sure, i've got a home, but it's not where i lay down
when we are apart, oh
what do you with the hole in your chest
when you give somebody your heart?

with my arms 'round the sky...
