[Verse 1] You met me by the pumps At the edge of town Dust on your boots And your hair pulled down You said, “Got room for two?” With a half-smile grin I said, “Climb on in Let’s go where we been” [Pre-Chorus] We rolled past the wheat Past the county line You reached for my hand Like you’d done it all your life And the sky got gold On that faded dash I knew right then I’d never want us back [Chorus] Keep that road in view Keep me next to you Miles fall away Like they know what to do Keep that road in view With your hand in mine I’d follow your taillights Any place, any time Keep that road in view Keep that road in view [Verse 2] We’ve slept in the cab By a cooling field Shared gas station fries And a borrowed radio wheel You sing off-key At the state line sign And I laugh so hard I forget the time Your shirt smells like rain And sun-baked hay You talk real slow Like you’re trying to stay [Pre-Chorus] And every small town Let us pass on through But every mile marker Still led me back to you With your elbow out And your boots on the seat I swear this old map Got a heart beat [Chorus] Keep that road in view Keep me next to you Miles fall away Like they know what to do Keep that road in view With your hand in mine I’d follow your taillights Any place, any time Keep that road in view Keep that road in view [Bridge] If we ever stop On some porch light lane I’ll still hear your laugh In the window rain But tonight let the engine And the stars agree The open road Was made for you and me [Final Chorus] Keep that road in view Keep me next to you Miles fall away Like they know what to do Keep that road in view With your hand in mine I’d follow your taillights Any place, any time Keep that road in view Keep that road in view
