Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sunday evening, the sky burns in orange and blue
Bags are packed, the engine waits
And somewhere between heart and horizon
Something pulls me back out
[Verse 2]
Sunday evening, the asphalt calls, the sky so wide, desire knocks
Wanderlust runs like wind through me
No stopping, no turning back
The lights fade past the yard, one last glance then I'm free
The diesel sings its old song and carries me away
[Chorus]
Roll on, heart of steel
Through night and neon fields
Between duty and desire
I don't lose myself
Roll on, mile by mile
No road leads back the while
But no matter how far I roam
Part of me stays home
[Verse 3]
Monday morning, town by town
Miles no one is counting down
Highways with no names, always moving
Truck stop coffee, radio crackles, tires hum in constant rhythm
Every load and every deadline drives me on
[Chorus]
Roll on, heart of steel
Through rain and winding hills
Between cargo and time
I'm ready for the climb
Roll on, hour by hour
The world keeps turning 'round
But no matter how far I roam
Part of me stays home
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
Friday evening, sun sinks low
The GPS says just one more
The odometer counts the final miles toward home
The yard appears in evening light
And there you stand in the doorway still, my angel smiles
And suddenly, it all falls off of me
[Chorus]
Roll homeward, heart of steel
Through every final hill
Now only this moment's true
I'm back with you
Roll homeward, step by step
You're walking toward me, yeah
No matter how far I roam
You waited at home
The road can take, the road can give
It asks for strength, but what carries me
Is not the engine, not the goal
It's your light that makes me whole
[Outro]
Roll homeward, heart of steel
No road was ever too unreal
'Cause at the end of every drive, our love survives
Roll on when I must, but I know where I can trust
No matter how far I roam
You are my home
The engine fades and night grows still
No more longing, only your feel
Sunday comes and calls me out
But tonight I stay without a doubt
