Road Outside Columbus - O.A.R.

There’s a road outside Columbus, Ohio

Feels like I drove along for years

This Midwest way of ease it surrounds us

I can’t deny the rhythm here

And as I pull away from Riverside beside me

That High Street never looked so good

I miss my lady even though she often writes me

She tells me tales of my neighborhood

Surprise, surprise, I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I’m known

My friends are here

A couple years I’ve spent, I found I have a second home

As I’m blazing down my trail to education

There’s no bliss in ignorance for me

I stop and stare, a breath of air might slow me down some

But that’s just fine with me

Surprise, surprise, I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I’m known

My friends are here

A couple years I’ve spent, I found I have a second home

I never traveled far

Two hundred miles to go

That boulevard will take me home

Surprise, surprise, I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I’m known

My friends are here

A couple years I’ve spent, I found I have a second home

Surprise, surprise, I traveled here

Four hundred miles from where I’m known

My friends are here

A couple years I’ve spent, I found I have a second home
