I got a tank full of gas and run-flat tires
I dare them all to catch this midnight flyer
I taped your photo to my rearview mirror
Counting the miles till I can hold you nearer

Got a starbucks balanced on my lap
My radar warns me at every new speed trap
I'm missing you like mad with every heartbeat
It's a matter of moments till we meet

Now I'm taking to the highway I-55
Dusty cup of coffee to keep me alive
No time to lose
Hoping it's a strong enough brew
I'll be thinking about the good times we'll be sharing
The smile on your face, the dress you'll be wearing
Hands off the wheel
Hoping my luck pulls me through
Driving and dreaming of you

Got a heart full of hope that keeps me going
Cross another state line, anticipation growing
Shuffle play with all our favorite love songs
We'll be dancing together before too long

Now I'm taking to the highway I-55
Dusty cup of coffee to keep me alive
No time to lose
Hoping it's a strong enough brew
I'll be thinking about the good times we'll be sharing
The smile on your face, the dress you'll be wearing
Hands off the wheel
Hoping my luck pulls me through
Driving and dreaming of you

Three days, three hours of sleep (three hours of sleep)
Storm clouds in the summer's heat (summer's heat)
Crickets chirping like a crazy choir
My heart is on fire
There's no way you can measure emotion (measure emotion)
Hope arising like a wave on the ocean
It won't be long till you're back in my arms again

Now I'm taking to the highway I-55
Dusty cup of coffee to keep me alive
No time to lose
Hoping it's a strong enough brew
I'll be thinking about the good times we'll be sharing
The smile on your face, the dress you'll be wearing
Hands off the wheel
Hoping my luck pulls me through
Driving and dreaming of you
Driving and dreaming of you
Taking to the highway I-55
Driving and dreaming
Taking to the highway I-55
