Fourteen years of this trucker life
Riding shotgun right by your side
Mark, you opened my heart to the light
On this beautiful, wide-open ride
We’ve seen God’s beauty out through the glass
Watching the miles and the memories pass
ChorusI will always love you higher than the stars, my handsome
You opened up my heart to every brand new first
Fourteen years of rolling down the open highway
Showing me the beauty of this whole wide earth
I am always yours, through the light and the dark
My driver, my husband, my Mark
Verse 2Rolling down the I-5 in the California sun
You knew I had never been to the coast
You pulled the truck over when the driving was done
To give me the moment I wanted the most
I put my bare feet in the ocean tide
Walking the beach for the first time by your side
ChorusI will always love you higher than the stars, my handsome
You opened up my heart to every brand new first
Fourteen years of rolling down the open highway
Showing me the beauty of this whole wide earth
I am always yours, through the light and the dark
My driver, my husband, my Mark
BridgeI reached down in the sand and I picked up a rock
From the edge of the crashing blue sea
I still cherish it today, a piece of that beach
And the beautiful life that you've given to me
Verse 3You’ve given me firsts that I’ll never forget
Every town, every state, every mile
I haven't found a single road I'd regret
As long as I'm looking right at your smile
Just keep the wheels turning, I'm where I belong
With you, my handsome, steady and strong
Final ChorusI will always love you higher than the stars, my handsome
You opened up my heart to every brand new first
Fourteen years of rolling down the open highway
Showing me the beauty of this whole wide earth
I am always yours, through the light and the dark
My driver, my husband, my Mark
