You were on my mind at least nine tenths of yesterday;
It seemed as if perhaps I'd gone insane.
What is it about you that has commandeered my brain?
Maybe it's your awesome songs or maybe it's the way
When I look at your face I can tell that you're not
Going to be stopping soon or even slowing down,
And if we keep up this pace pretty soon we'll know the name
Of every kid and every grown up booking house shows in their town.

And if home is really where the heart is,
Then we're the smartest kids I know,
Because wherever we are in this great big world,
We'll never be more than a few hours from home,
And that's important because I need to travel.
I've had this itchin' in my shoes since I was just a little kid,
My mom would say, "I hope some day you get paid for being Kimya Dawson".

And now I do and it's not much,
But it's enough.
I've got my Scrabble game, food on my plate, good friends and family,
And now there's you understanding why I do the things I do,
Knowing that you do them too makes me really happy.

On the road again,
Just can't wait to get on the road again,
The life I love is makin' music with my friends,
and I can't wait to get on the road again
(x2)

From a distance, the world looks blue and green,
And the snow capped mountains white,
From a distance, the ocean meets the stream,
And the eagle takes to flight.

Darkness imprisoning me,
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell
do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do
do do do do do do do I'll be your cryin' shoulder,
I'll be love's suicide,
I'll be do do do do do do,
I'll be the greatest man of your life.

'Cause I like going for hikes and riding bikes,
And playing video games in the middle of the night,
And I'll stay up late and I wont even care
That we're getting up early to go to the state fair.
I'm gonna ride the biggest ride it'll be out of sight,
Then I'll share an elephant ear with you if you'd like,
Because we are alive so we've gotta live life
To the fullest, you spin the bottle and I'll dim the lights,
Four, five, six, seven minutes in the closet.

You were on my mind at least nine tenths of yesterday,
It seemed as if perhaps I'd gone insane.
What is it about you that has commandeered my brain?
Maybe it's your awesome songs or maybe it's the way
You go straight to the top, you're not scared of getting squashed,
You know just when to jump off,
You're so brave,
And then you run to the right, it seems there's no hope in sight,
And you drop down to the tube that takes you right to level eight.

Life is a highway and I'm gonna ride it,
Every day's a winding road, yeah,
My rollercoaster's got the biggest ups and downs,
As long as it keeps goin' round its unbelievable
