[Verse]
Steel giants hum on the open road
Their engines roar where the wild winds go
The cab’s my castle but it feels so small
Home’s a memory
Framed on the wall
[Chorus]
Rolling wheels
Empty seats
Every mile steals a heartbeat
Family’s faces in my rearview fade
I’m chasing dreams
But the cost is paid
[Verse 2]
Little hands waved when I pulled away
Tears in their eyes
But I couldn’t stay
The highway’s lonely
The nights stretch thin
A life on the move
But I’m missing my kin
[Prechorus]
The radio sings
The road never ends
But I’d trade it all to be home again
[Chorus]
Rolling wheels
Empty seats
Every mile steals a heartbeat
Family’s faces in my rearview fade
I’m chasing dreams
But the cost is paid
[Bridge]
The stars keep watch
The moon hangs low
This diesel heart is aching slow
My truck is heavy
My soul is light
I dream of my porch every night
