One more Mile

Verse 1

There’s a crack in this old windshield,

And a hundred in my soul.

I’ve chased dreams across these highways,

Paid more dues than I’ll ever know.

Every scar’s another chapter,

Every tear’s another page.

I’ve been fighting through the fire,

Trying not to lose my faith.

Verse 2

I’ve watched storms roll through my life,

Like they knew right where I stood.

Some days I wore a smile,

Some days I barely could.

But every time they counted me out,

Every time they thought I’d fall,

I’d dust myself off one more time,

And answer that next call.

Chorus

So I’ll drive one more mile,

I’ll climb one more hill.

I’ll stand back up tomorrow,

If this old heart still will.

They can knock me to my knees,

They can leave me black and blue.

But they can’t take the man inside

Who keeps on pushing through.

As long as there’s a sunrise,

As long as I can see,

I’ll keep chasing better days…

One more mile for me.

Bridge

Maybe peace ain’t something you find,

Maybe it’s something you build.

One honest day, one steady step,

One promise you’ve fulfilled.

And maybe all these broken roads

Were never meant to last.

Maybe they’re just leading me

To somewhere beyond my past.

Final Chorus

So I’ll drive one more mile,

With the windows rolling down.

Trade all this hurt for mountain air,

Far away from this old town.

I’ll carry every lesson,

But leave the weight behind.

‘Cause hope don’t always shout out loud—

Sometimes it whispers, “One more time.”

Outro

If you see these taillights fading,

Don’t think I’m running away.

I’m just headed toward a life

Where peace decides to stay.

One more mile…

That’s all it takes today.
