Lyrics Long Ride Home - Sara Evans

Long Ride Home

Long black limousine
Shiniest car I’ve ever seen
Backseat is nice and clean
She rides as quiet as a dream
Someone dug a hole six long
Feet in the ground
I said goodbye to you
Then I threw my roses down
Ain’t nothing left at all
In the end of being proud with me
Riding in this car
And you flying through them clouds
I’ve had some time to think about you
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I’ve had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in the wedding band
Daddy gave a piece of land
We laid ourselves the best of plans
40 years go by
With someone laying in your bed
40 years of things you say
You wish you’d never said
How hard would it have been
To say some kinder words instead
I wonder as I stare at the sky turning red
I’ve had some time to think about you
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I’ve had some time to think about you
On the long ride home
Headlights searching down the driveway
Our house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
And seems as empty as the inside of me
I’ve had some time to think about you
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I’ve had some time to think about you
On the long, on the long
On the long, on the long
Ride home
