lyrics

If I had a spare million dollars, I'd go up to the mountains with you
I'd buy a plot of land at the top of a holler,
build a cabin, and paint the doors blue
Yes, we'd wrap the porch all the way around
We're 20 miles north from the nearest town
If I were dirty rich, I'd lay all my money down
if it meant running away with you

Oh, and if I could cash a check in wishful thinking
I'd never, ever let our reality sink in
Troubled by daily life no more,
we head out east on Interstate 40

If I had me a time machine, I'd take us back to 503
Before the wars, before kings and queens,
roughly where North Carolina should be
And if we find we want to get with the times,
we'll fast forward to 4009
Land on a star recently colonized,
you and me on Alpha Centurai B

Oh, and if I could cash a check in wishful thinking
I'd never, ever let our reality sink in
Troubled by daily life no more,
we head out east on Interstate 40

Yet still I know that wherever we go
is irrelevant when related to
The rush I feel when I play back the reel of
memories pertaining to you
Near or far, riding in your car,
it's perfectly romantic being where you are
And no time machine or dollar bills,
no kings or queens or rolling hills
could ever fill your space in my heart

Oh, and if I could cash a check in wishful thinking
I'd never, ever let our reality sink in
Troubled by daily life no more,
we head out east on Interstate 40
