There's a distance growing inside of my feelings
And i must leave you alone
A friendship for highways and sunshine and good times
Is growing inside my bones
The sounds of the city are getting me down
And i must be moving on
And when the sun rises up on the mountain
You can find me gone
I've wasted too much time

Don't get to thinking this needing for leaving
Is losing because of you
It takes much more than some misplaced feelings
To ramble me into blues
And i have a dream in my mind i must follow
And feeling is true
And when the sun rises up on the mountain
I'll be leaving you
I've wasted too much time

Smile on the country after sweet summer's rain
Freshens my memories
The friends i have known in the years come and gone
Are roads that i'm longing to see
Don't get me wrong now, i really will miss you
I just have this need to be free
And when the sun rises up on the mountain
I'll be taking my leave
I've wasted too much time
I've got to find peace of mind
I've wasted too much time
