The Hitchhiker

I heard you favored another
 And to me it came as no surprise
 I had all I can take of feeling this way
 knowing I was gone beyond goodbye
 I hear a voice in the distance
 Crying like a sorrowful ghost
 There's a dark sky moving behind me
 And I'm riding my thumb by the road
 Or take me to the coast of California
 There's a cold wind blowing here at home
 Anywhere your restless wheels are rolling
 Is better off than staying here alone
 So i paid a price for the learning
 Measured in the passing of time
 Money can't buy back the years I've lost
 Water that never turned to wine
