Lyric Wednesdays - Eve 6

This week's entry is a song by Eve 6 that should be played in a vehicle to take advantage of it's awesomeness. My best memory of this song was when I was cruising down Calumet Drive/Hwy 42 in my truck with MML. Jeff was in the lane next to me in his Mustang. We were coming home from the bar at 2 am and probably should not have been driving. We rolled down our windows and each hit play on our CD players at the same time. We're rolling down the road, driving side-by-side, screaming this song to each other. It was a sight to be seen. It is one of my favorite memories of all-time.

I hope others have had great driving memories to this song. When I met Matt, I found out he also loved this song and knew every word. That's the mark of a truly fun song.

So hop in your car and crank up "Open Road Song."

Tonight I feel ambitious and so does my foot, as it sinks on the pedal
I press it to the floor
I don't need a girl
Don't need a friend
Cuz my friend lonesome's unconditional
We're flying forever bored

For a moment I love everything that I see, and think, and feel
I love my broken sideview mirror
Cuz it's so perfect
I'm so perfect
You're so perfect
You're not here!
I hear the change in gears

My pile shakes as i hit 80' on the open road
This is an open road song

The night is beckoning
Although I have nowhere to go but home, feels good to be alone
With every turn comes a new frame of mind
If I could frame my mind
Where would it hang?

My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
This is an open road...song!

I crack a window
And feel the cool air cleanse my every pore
As i pour my poor heart out
To a radio song that's patient and willing to listen
My volume drowns it out
Ya, but that's okay cuz I sound better then him anyway
Anyday!
Ya, my voice is sweet as salt
I search for comfort and I find it where I found it many times before
Times before it could be forgotten, yeah !

My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
My pile shakes as I hit 80' on the open road
This is an open road...song!
