My name looks unfamiliar on this barky marky sign
[Nama saya terlihat asing di tanda yang kasar ini]
And the love that I've been gettin' I can't really call it mine
[Dan cinta yang saya dapatkan, saya tidak bisa benar-benar menyebutnya milikku]
This blacktop ribbon winds me down an unforgivin' road
[Jalan aspal ini membawa saya menyusuri jalan yang tak ramah]
When I think about my baby on the other side of home
[Saat saya memikirkan tentang kekasih saya di sisi lain rumah]
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, I gotta go
[Saya bilang oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, saya harus pergi]
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh
[Saya bilang oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh]

Hey, hey, hey, on my way
[Hei, hei, hei, dalam perjalanan saya]
23 days gone by, why can't eagles fly
[23 hari berlalu, kenapa elang tidak bisa terbang]
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
[Hei, hei, hei, cinta tidak hancur]
23 nights of blue carry me back to you
[23 malam yang kelam membawaku kembali padamu]
Yeah
[Yeah]

Another song gets crippled on this napkin in my lap
[Lagu lain terhenti di serbet ini di pangkuanku]
As we burn another circle on this god forsaken map
[Saat kita membakar lingkaran lain di peta yang terkutuk ini]
The droaning of the engines and the moaning of the wheels
[Suara mesin yang mendengung dan suara roda yang merengek]
It's a fortuneteller's melody, it's how you make me feel
[Ini adalah melodi peramal, begitulah cara kau membuatku merasa]
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, I gotta go
[Saya bilang oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, saya harus pergi]
I say oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh
[Saya bilang oh, oh-oh-oh, oooh]

Hey, hey, hey, on my way
[Hei, hei, hei, dalam perjalanan saya]
23 days gone by why can't eagles fly
[23 hari berlalu, kenapa elang tidak bisa terbang]
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
[Hei, hei, hei, cinta tidak hancur]
23 nights of blue carry me back to you
[23 malam yang kelam membawaku kembali padamu]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
[Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa]

Yeah, Albuquerque's never felt colder
[Yeah, Albuquerque tidak pernah terasa sedingin ini]
One mile higher all the way to Boulder
[Satu mil lebih tinggi sampai ke Boulder]
Okalahoma City always looks pretty
[Kota Oklahoma selalu terlihat cantik]
'Cause it's half way home
[Karena ini setengah jalan pulang]
Yeah, windshield wipers, broken white lines
[Yeah, penghapus kaca, garis putus-putus yang rusak]
Lord, don't let me loose my mind
[Tuhan, jangan biarkan saya kehilangan akal]
'Cause 23 days of Tennessee time
[Karena 23 hari waktu Tennessee]
And I'm back to you
[Dan saya kembali padamu]

Ooooh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Ooooh, oh-oh-oh, oooh, yeah, yeah, yeah]

Hey, hey, hey, on my way
[Hei, hei, hei, dalam perjalanan saya]
23 days gone by why can't eagles fly
[23 hari berlalu, kenapa elang tidak bisa terbang]
Hey, hey, hey, love don't break
[Hei, hei, hei, cinta tidak hancur]
23 nights of blue carry me back to you
[23 malam yang kelam membawaku kembali padamu]
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh
[Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh]
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, oh
[Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, oh]
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh
[Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh]
Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, yeah
[Whoa-oh, whoa-ooooh, yeah]
