Will you follow me west if you share the same dream
we'll make friends on the road and learn how to believe
my heart is a home it grows emptier still
i'm struggling now just to keep in good health
if you look at my eyes there's these circles that show
I've been getting less sleep the more truth that I know
there's something not right bout this roof on my head
how I still feel alone in a room full of friends
always anxious to leave every place I arrive
with a laugh and a smile still neurotic inside
I'm an honest man I swear to you it's not what it seems
all I need is a friend who would stand next to me
come and follow me west if you share all my dreams
to make friends on the road and learn how to believe
I can drive through the night and I'll wake you at dawn
let the sunrise herself tell our friends we are gone
got a ring my pocket left hand full of salt
but the longer I travel the less I feel lost
I can stay the next month on a couch at my friends
so he dropped out of school but he learned how to live
and that's the whole reason why I ran away
because nothing at school has taught me how to stay
I got stability I swear to you it's not what it seems
all I need is a friend to be moving with me
come and follow me west if you have the same dream
to make friends on the road and learn how to believe
at an uncertain hour every road will turn gray
I've grown sick for a home that I haven't yet made
will you settle me down if I ask for your hand
if I build us a house once I buy us some land
and in every man's life there's a time to grow wise
like the time he was born and the time that he dies
now I ain't got a clue when I'm coming to mine
but I promise, my love, I will make you my wife
I'm strong enough I swear to you it's not what it seems
all I need is a friend who can stand up for me
come and follow me west if you have the same dream
to make friends on the road and learn how to believe in God.
