I was standing at the edge of love, with one foot on the ground
The other on a dusty road, where freedom can be found
Your eyes, they held me closer, but the highway called my name
And between the two, my restless soul just couldn't be the same
We made a pact beneath the stars
That love would always heal the scars
But sometimes love can feel like chains
And sometimes hearts can't bear the strain
Torn between the heart and road, don't know which way to go
Stay with you or chase the wind, only time will ever show
Love's a fire that burns so bright, but the road pulls in the night
Now I'm torn between the heart and road
One of them I'll have to let go
We shared a dream of forever, but dreams can drift away
When the open road is whispering, there's more to find someday
You held my hand, you begged me stay
But the wild heart can't be tamed
And I promised you my love, but the highway still remains
We swore we'd never break apart
But promises fade in the dark
And though my love for you runs deep
The highway's got my soul to keep
So here I am at the crossroads now
With love behind and freedom found
I can't take both, I wish I could
But sometimes love's misunderstood
Torn between the heart and road, don't know which way to go
Stay with you or chase the wind, only time will ever show
Love's a fire that burns so bright, but the road pulls in the night
Now I'm torn between the heart and road
One of them I'll have to let go
One of them I'll have to let go
