I ride east every other Friday but if I had it my way
The day would not be wasted on this drive.
And i want so bad to hold you
Son there's things I haven't told you
Your dad and me just couldn't get along.
So I'll drive
And I think about my life
And wonder why, That I slowly die inside
Everytime I turn that truck around,
right at the Georgia line
right at the Georgia line
and I count the days and the miles back home to you
on that Highway 20 ride.
A day might come and you'll realize
that if you could see through my eyes
that if you could see through my eyes
There was no other way to work it out
And a part of you might hate me
But son please don't mistake me
For a mom that didn't care at all.
And I'll drive
And I'll think about my life
And wonder why, That I slowly die inside
Everytime I turn that truck around,
right at the Georgia line
right at the Georgia line
and I count the days and the miles back home to you
on that Highway 20 ride.
So when you drive
And the years go flying by
I hope you smile
If I ever cross your mind
It was a pleasure of my life
And I cherished every time
And my whole world,
It begins and ends with you
On that Highway 20 ride....

I love this song. It makes me cry every time. I explained it to Craig's girls one day and how it was the situation they are in. Now they ask to listen to it all the time!!
I have never heard the song before. Wow, it pulls me right in to the heartache and the separation that happens after divorce. My heart goes out to you. I think you're an awesome Mom, and I know your guys do, too.
