Left Bellevue in the morning grey 405 just waking up
Windshields humming coffee cooling radio low headlights up
The sky hung heavy over Lake Washington like I knew where I was bound
Every mile pulling east every mile breaking ground
Snoqualmie wore a frozen breath clouds wrapped tight around the hill
Road was wet but holding steady white lines cutting through the chill
Fog rolled low across the pass tires whispered don't rush this now
I eased on through the silence let the mountain show me how
I'm just following the white lines home through the cold and the quiet miles
Every road I've ever known leads me back after a while
I've been gone I've been moving on but tonight I'm not alone
I-90 East December skies bringing me home
Cle Elum moving wide and brown pines stood still the air turned thin
Snow hit deep where shadows stay but the highway pulled me in
Grey gave way to open land where the light fell soft and pale
Just me and that long eastbound line running straight through Kittitas Vale
Columbia Basin spread its breath cold fields sleeping under sky
Clouds moved slow the wind went quiet time felt like it drifted by
Every mile felt lighter now like something old was letting go
I've been gone longer than I planned but the road still seemed to know
I'm just following the white lines home through the cold and the quiet miles
Every road I've ever known leads me back after a while
I've been gone I've been moving on but tonight I'm not alone
I-90 East December skies bringing me home
Past Ritzville closer still the day turned dim around two o'clock
Headlights glow against the grey counting down the final blocks
Thought about the years between the miles the work the nights alone
All the roads that made me who I am all the ways they led me home
Spokane under low hung clouds cold air cuts but the lights feel warm
The fires slow the city breathes after miles of open storm
I shut it down let silence fall snow in the air peace in my chest
After everything this road has been this feels like rest
I'm just following the white lines home through the cold and the quiet miles
Every road I've ever known leads me back after a while
I've been gone I've been moving on but tonight I'm not alone
I-90 East December skies you brought me home
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh
