| Drive all night and you’re almost home. |
| You sing along a song on the radio.
|
| Your dashboard lights and your engine moans. |
| The last time you left was long
|
| ago
|
| And when you ride, the half folks and empty eyes, and everyone starts asking
|
| where you’ve been. |
| Just then you realize that while you were out chasing pines,
|
| everybody else got settled in
|
| You are older, you are now, once a young gun. |
| Now the door is locked so the
|
| lights all leave your face numb. |
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun.
|
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun
|
| And off you go and on you ride. |
| You never felt so lost and left behind.
|
| Your headlights glow on your heavy mind, shining on the road and now you’re
|
| blind. |
| You can hope the stretch ahead is silverlined
|
| And when you return, back to town, the place you yearn is the only one who
|
| knows where you’ve been. |
| It’ll be no surprise, while everyone has lived their
|
| lives, the memories you left them were thin
|
| You are older, you are now, once a young gun. |
| Now the door is locked so the
|
| lights all leave your face numb. |
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun.
|
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun
|
| Now when you leave here, you look twice at your loved ones, make sure to soak
|
| it in. Now when you leave here, you look twice at your loved ones.
|
| You don’t know how they’ll grow, they just know you’re leaving
|
| You are older, you are now, once a young gun. |
| Now the door is locked so the
|
| lights all leave your face numb. |
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun.
|
| You saw the world spin, while your home spun |
