[00:03.66]Hey, hey, Carla
[00:07.26]It’s a long way to Missouri
[00:12.64]From this highway
[00:17.21]East of Roanoke
[00:24.47]We had a moment
[00:26.31]That felt like summer
[00:31.72]Now in slumber
[00:36.25]I can see your smile
[00:40.84]We drive for miles
[00:45.31]Through corporate Ohio
[00:49.95]Rest stops in West Virginia
[00:54.48]Traffic in Washington DC
[00:59.03]But of all the scenes that I see
[01:01.76]Played out this window to the left of me
[01:03.55]The thought of you it shines
[01:09.09]The band plays on, I keep the time
[01:23.52]We play in the night time
[01:28.16]Awake before sunrise
[01:32.67]Wipe the sleep from my eyes
[01:37.25]Coffee my best friend
[01:41.76]You dance between classes
[01:46.20]Complete difficult assignments
[01:50.77]Wonder where the time went
[01:55.33]Out drinking with your friends
[01:59.80]We see a lot of beauty
[02:04.47]Some becomes ordinary
[02:08.96]Mountains, and canyons, and prairies
[02:13.43]Sunset over Chesapeake Bay
[02:17.90]Dear, dear Carla
[02:22.55]It’s only that I’m askin’
[02:27.01]Make time more easy for the passin’
[02:30.68]If I knew I would see you again
[02:36.11]Of all the beauty that I see
[02:37.96]Out this window to the left of me
[02:39.78]The thought of you it shines
[02:48.79]The band plays on, I keep the time
[02:51.47]The time is marked, between the lines
[02:57.80]Hmmm… I keep the time
[03:06.83]Year of Release: 2004
