lyrics

Hey there, Susannah.
It’s almost 3 am, let’s watch the stars.
They’re falling like we are, like piano keys they harmonize our hearts.

Oh, But the open road’s been good to me these years.
Oh, My arms stretched wide while Jessie takes the wheel.


Hey there, Susannah.
You left your pocketbook back on my street.
Your poems and drawings, and every page there lies a hint of me.

Oh, but the open road’s been good to me these years.
Oh, my arms stretched wide while Jessie takes the wheel.

Am I stuck here in this car? Insane and craving.
But all I’ve seen so far, is all that I know.

Hey there, Susannah.
I guess it’s better you’re not here, at least, tonight.
The moon is my lover, with her I’ll sleep - a bottle by my side.

Oh, but the country air tastes better than a beer.
Oh, be much better if I’d wake to find you here
Oh, but the open road’s been good to me these years.
Oh, my arms stretched wide while Jessie takes the wheel.
