Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. -Dr. Seuss


A lonely highway,
headlights on bright,
shining on the highway in the middle of the night.

Ten missed calls, they all wanna know where I’m gonna go,
but to tell the truth, I don’t evenknoww,
a million miles in front of me,
and darkness as far as I can see.

CH: A million miles to go,
and where I’m going, I still don’t know,
A thousand reasons to leave,
trying to outrun the past,
but oh, even in the middle of the night,
its much to fast.
And why I run from it,
I don’t know, but I’ve got a million miles to go

Just waiting for the sun to rise,
hit me in the eyes,
and maybe make me realize
it’s time to go back,
but until then,
I stay driving in the black ( repeat chorus)

Nice. I like this. Not sure what the message is but it isn't precise. I like the rhyme and rhythm so this is one of the good ones.

Logic is not flawless

Cool. Needs some more lyrics, but a GREAT start.

This could be a neat song. I don't know what you were thinking when you wrote this, but I can imagine it being sung slow at first, then speeding up, all under the melody of the hard hit keys of a piano. Please read and comment on my work.
