Thanks,

On the open road! This is the place I feel the most calm and clear-headed. It's a favorite place of mine where I find peace and joy. The Highway! It's full of life and beauty with a never ending view!

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking

    And as we wind on down the road
    Our shadows taller than our souls.
    There walks a lady we all know
    Who shines white light and wants to show
    How everything still turns to gold.
    And if you listen very hard
    The tune will come to you at last.
    When all are one and one is all
    To be a rock and not to roll.
    And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
    OK, I'm buying!
