Mary Chapin Carpenter

One Small Heart

Call the folks, leave a note

Lock the doors and windows

Pack the truck, here's to luck

Here?s to how the wind blows

Got the cash, got the gas

Now lose the map and compass

Now read the signs, obey the lines

Follow all your hunches

'Cause now it's just the open road

One small heart and a great big soul that's driving

Radio singing low

Just like a true companion

L.A's lights wavy bright

They follow like a lantern

Then mornin' comes and desert sun

Rises like redemption

Another day to make your way from answer

Back to question

Out here on the open road

One small heart and a great big soul that's driving

No set of directions, no shortcuts

Just some empty soda cans, some cigarette butts

The key to traveling light is to

Not need very much

Late tonight you'll see the lights

Of a thousand stars above you

And at a roadside stop you?ll call to talk

To a voice back home that swears to love you

But at the sound of the tone

You?ll hang up the phone and peel out of that joint

You'll try again, God knows when

At least they got the point

They lost you to the open road

One small heart and a great big soul that's driving, driving

Out here on the open road

One small heart and a great big soul that's driving
