ALASKA HIGHWAY - Detour

Sometimes I still pretend
We took that drive down the back roads
Oh, it'd been cool rollin' windows down on that detour
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Maybe you're a fool for jumping in the side door
Maybe I'm a fool for pressing the pedal to the floor
Maybe we're both fools for thinkin' that we're driving down the same damn road
These country roads ain't taking no one home

Maybe you're a fool for crashing through the closure
Maybe I'm a fool, you're blind spot I moved over
Maybe we're both fools for thinkin' that we're driving down the same damn road
These country roads ain't taking no one home
But sometimes I still pretend we took that drive down the back roads
Of our lives, oh, it'd been cool rolling windows down on that detour
Sometimes I wonder if I hadn't taken that last exit
Would you have changed your mind and pulled a U-turn, but I guess it doesn't matter now

Cause it was my turn and now I'm westbound
But sometimes I still pretend we took that drive down the back roads
Of our lives, oh, it'd been cool rolling windows down on that detour

But I had to take streets that were paved, not the backroad way
We were runnin' on empty
Guess what, my windows are down, I'm in a brand new town
Ain't checking my rearview for you
I no longer wonder if we took that drive down the back roads
I'd have been a fool, driving on fumes of you
