[Verse 1]
And the wind, it tore all through the atmosphere
And the air, it filled with dust
Searching for a connection, I went in every direction
Some places I've already been

[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh, with lost love and loneliness
So many things have changed
And, oh, I just don't look at things the same way now
Since we parted ways

[Chorus]
Out in this space, I'm a long way from home
The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on
To a wide open space to breathe in, oh
I needed a wide open place to breathe in, oh

[Verse 2]
And the sun went down over this little ghost town
Near the valley of the Rio Grande
I needed a little bit of whiskey and a little bit of time
To ease my troubled mind

[Pre-Chorus]
And, oh, with lost love and loneliness
So many things have changed
And, oh, I just don't look at things the same way now
Since we parted ways
[Chorus]
Out in this space, I'm a long way from home
The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on
To a wide open space to breathe in, oh
On to a wide open space to breathe in, oh

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
Out in this space, I'm a long way from home
The hum of the wheels, they are carrying me on
To a wide open space to breathe in, oh
On to a wide open space to breathe in, oh
On to a wide open space to breathe in, oh

[Outro]
Got to move on, just got to get it out
And out if I wanna be free
I'm moving on, it takes a lot
So much of my energy
I'm going around and I have found
I know this the reason that's bringing me down
Takes a lot, takes a lot
Takes a lot, takes a lot
