 The  skies were pure and the fields were green The sun was  brighter than it's ever been
 When  I grew up with my best friend Kenny  We were close as  any brothers than you ever knew
It  was always summer and the future called We were ready  for adventures and we wanted them
 all  There was so much left to dream  And so much time to make  it real.
But  I can still recall the sting of all The tears when  he was gone
They  said he crashed and burned I know I'll never  learn why any boy should die so young
 We were racing, we were soldiers of fortune We got in trouble but  we sure got around
There  are times I think I  see him peeling out of the dark I think he's right  behind me
 and
he's  gaining ground
 But  it was long ago and it was far away God it seems so  very far
And  if life is just  a highway Then the  soul is just a  car
And  objects in the rear view mirror may appear closer than they are
