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
