| And do I leave for California
|
| When my love is here behind in Tennessee?
|
| From the night times and the mornings
|
| I am aching for the better part of me
|
| I’ve a thousand miles behind me
|
| And a thousand more that I have yet to go
|
| Well, I kept all of your letters
|
| Reading in between the white lines on the road
|
| The white lines on the road
|
| So won’t you come home and dance with me baby
|
| Cause I’ve been traveling this road that is so dark
|
| So won’t you come home and dance with me baby
|
| Cause it’s been too long
|
| It’s been too long
|
| And I find I am divided between here and there
|
| And you and them and me
|
| And I know this dream that I am chasing
|
| Can very well go and be the death of me
|
| So darling, don’t you worry
|
| I’ll be there before you can close your eyes
|
| I’ll be there to kiss my baby
|
| And dance with you until the morning light
|
| Until the morning light
|
| So won’t you come home and dance with me baby
|
| Cause I’ve been traveling this road that is so dark
|
| So won’t you come home and dance with me baby
|
| Cause it’s been too long
|
| It’s been too long
|
| Oh, yeah |
