remember the times we used to talk all night on the dreams we planned
with your mouth so sweet drinking wine from the bottle and your head in my hands
it’s a long way off
those nights are such a long way off

i know, i know…
i know it hadn’t been easy
you drove all this way just to see me
i smoked every cigarette in this county
thinking ‘bout your body wrapped around me
gimme something to trust,
gimme something to start again, start again,
i want to kiss you underneath all them stars again
baby it can be ours again

oh,
ain’t you tired of running now baby
oh,
we can make it better now baby
oh,
you can still see the clouds burning up from the lights of the city tonight
but it’s a long way off
feels like such a long way off

when i called you up, i could hear you been cryin, but baby, it’s all right
we lost our minds to liquor and time, but baby, it’s all right
i know what you can’t forget
but it’s okay...
someday a change is gonna come, i bet
but the worst part ain’t over yet

had dreams, but they’ve all run from me
just look at how the years have done me
this old town is sleeping so soundly
so pretty baby, put your arms around me
i don’t really want to talk too much
the last time we touched i could feel your body rise, too much,
baby it’s never gonna be the two of us
if the past ain’t through with us

oh,
ain’t you tired of running now baby
oh,
we can make it better now baby
oh,
oh,
it’s a long way off
feels like such a long way off
long way off

baby, baby, baby, baby, it’s gonna be all right…
baby, baby, baby, baby, it’s gonna be all right…
baby, baby, baby, baby, it’s gonna be all right…
baby, baby, baby, baby, it’s gonna be all right…
it’s a long way off
