I met you on the highway
And you were going my way
You sang out with a smile
You said "love is what I got"
And somewhere in Kentucky
Not knowing we were lucky
We spoke a different language
We had not won or lost
And I without my freedom
And looking for a reason
And so long disbelieving
That love could be like this
And you with your heart broken
And still you kept it open
In words that were not spoken
You told me what you miss
Let's move a little closer
Let's grow a little older
And touch our lives together
Cross the spaces in between
Oh put your arms around me
And let your love surround me
Now rest your head on my heart
There's room here for your dreams
We stood there in the doorway
And I was going your way
A boy around the corner
A man who can stand tall
A car without a cable
Our cards down on the table
And somehow we are able
To rise after the fall
And you put on a necklace
And said "let's not be reckless"
I never did expect this
But I'm so in love with you
We fell asleep together
In spite of all the weather
And it's hard to say forever
But I want it to be true
Let's move a little closer
Let's grow a little older
And touch our lives together
Cross the spaces in between
I put my arms around you
And let my love surround you
You said "Rest your head on my heart
There's room here for your dreams"
