We kept apart and connected by the same stretch of road Neglected the truth and refused to grow old It started a stream but then the levee fell When the rainmaker had some extra sends to sell I just wanna drink 'til I'm not thirsty I just wanna sleep 'til I'm not tired I just wanna drive 'til I run out of highway Into the purple sky Well, I just thought I'd call and see what's going on Did the hills all flatten out since I've been gone? Are the fields all painted up in red and blue? Are you thinking of me the times I'm thinking of you? I just wanna drink 'til I'm not thirsty I just wanna sleep 'til I'm not tired I just wanna drive 'til I run out of highway Into the purple sky But if I'm gonna live until I'm 50 I'm gonna need you by my side 'Cause I don't wanna dance without you with me Into the purple sky Livin' like a soulless pirate somewhere lost at sea Wondering if I ever make it home, will you come back to me Could we dream up a reason for a rendezvous? I'm back in town and I got nothing to do We could drive all day with the top let down We could stay in tonight or we could wreck this town I just wanna drink 'til I'm not thirsty I just wanna sleep 'til I'm not tired I just wanna drive 'til I run out of highway Into the purple sky But if I'm gonna live until I'm 50 I'm gonna need you by my side 'Cause I don't wanna dance without you with me Into the purple sky Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, huh, huh Into the purple sky Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, huh, huh Into the purple sky Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, huh, huh Into the purple sky Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, huh, huh Into the purple sky Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, huh, huh Into the purple sky
