there's a highway that runs right through this town
just a stream of life when the sun goes down
as you look out the window to the west
one day the snow was all she left
right now you don't see that you're just like me
river of stone wild and lonely
can you show me what lies beyond
take me where they don't know me
but tomorrow morning i'll be gone
this old town is way too small
when you've seen one face you've seen them all
and the only way things will ever change
is to set your feet on the outbound range
oh how did she know one day i would follow
river of stone wild and lonely
can you show me what lies beyond
take me where they don't know me
by tomorrow morning i'll be gone
some got to move
some just stand still
some take their chances
some never will
oh
river of stone wild and lonely
can you show me what lies beyond
take me where they don't know me
by tomorrow morning i'll be gone
by tomorrow morning
i'll be gone
i'll be gone
i'll be gone
i'll be gone
