Road Warrior

[Verse] Rollin' on the highway With the sky so wide Daddy's got his big wheels A long drive by his side Thoughts of his little girl With ribbons in her hair Every mile away Feels like a silent prayer [Verse 2] Through the mirror He sees the town grow small Each sign he passes Makes his heart feel small But he hides his worries Wears a smile so bright Gotta keep her safe from the pain Day and night [Chorus] 'Cause he's a road warrior With a brave and true heart Singing songs of home Under the sky so dark Though the road is long And the nights get cold He carries love within The strongest will to hold [Verse] Once he hits the road No time to unload Counting down the hours [Verse 2] In laughter and warmth His world takes its form As he tucks her in Stories of the places he's been [Outro] Leaving out hardships and sorrows Keeping his canvas clean for tomorrows There's a faded picture by the dashboard tight Fuel for his journey when she's out of sight
