Brighter Day Songtext
von Amanda Walker

West bound I don′t know where I'm headed
Left turn that winds onto I-10
Think that I might end up in Texas
But I don′t think I'll be back here again

Right turn up the Mississippi
Rolling hills turn flat then back again
Hell, you know I might be home by sunset
I think I'll just end up there again

So meet me in the middle or somewhere near it
Off the highway south of Memphis a little way
Let the trucks all pass us by, leave the troubles all behind
And make a break for a brighter day

So the hills they roll into a blazing sunset
And the autumn leaves they paint across the trees
Quiet nights, a glass of wine on the back porch
My momma′s laugh is just the thing I need


So meet me in the middle or somewhere near it
Off the highway south of Memphis a little way
Let the trucks all pass us by, leave the troubles far behind
And make a break for a brighter day

Daylight, I′m starting to miss my baby
Think I'll tell him that I was just missing my friends
I′m pretty sure I'll make New Orleans tomorrow
Just can′t wait to be back there again

Meet me in the middle or somewhere near it
Off the highway south of Memphis a little way
Let the trucks all pass us by, leave the troubles all behind
And make a break for a brighter day

And the troubles fade into the setting sun
Doesn't even feel like I′m on the run
It's looking like a brighter day

So meet me in the middle or somewhere near it
Off the highway south of Memphis a little way
Let the trucks all pass us by, leave the troubles all behind
And make a break for a brighter day
