Nearer To You

(album: Out On The Road - 1973)

Another day on and I'm nearer to you
Another nights song and I'm nearer to you
So the miles don't seem half as long
And the highway is shorter too
I'm hitching a ride getting nearer to you

The morning has come so I'm up with the dew
I walk and I run and I soak in the view
And the sun wears a happy face
And the sky looks that bit more blue
I'm hitching a ride getting nearer to you

Every second leads me to my lady
And every road is taking me back home
And I don't wanna live without my baby
So I hope the world keeps spinning
Bringing me back to you

Another new day and I'm nearer to you
My going away brought me nearer to you
So I sing as I travel on
And I whistle a highway song
I'm hitching a ride getting nearer to you

Every second leads me to my lady
And every road is taking me back home
And I don't wanna live without my baby
So I hope the world keeps spinning
Bringing me back to you

Nearer to you
Getting nearer to you
I'm getting nearer to you
Getting nearer to you

Another day gone
Travelling on
Getting nearer to you
