Long Ride Home

[Verse 1]

Long black limousine

Shiniest car I've ever seen

The back seat is nice and clean

She rides as quiet as a dream

Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground

When I said goodbye to you and 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

[Chorus]

I've had some time to think about it

And watch the sun sink like a stone

I've had some time to think about you

On the long ride home

[Verse 2]

One day, I took your tiny hand

Put your finger in the wеdding band

Daddy gave a piece of land

Wе laid ourselves the best of plans

Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed

Forty years of things you say you'd wish you never said

How hard would it have been to say some kinder words instead?

I wonder as I stare up at the sky all turning red

[Chorus]

I've had some time to think about it

And watch the sun sink like a stone

I've had some time to think about you

On the long ride home

[Bridge]

Headlights searchin' down the driveway

The house is dark as it can be

I go inside and all is silent

And it seems as empty as the inside of me, yeah

[Chorus]

I've had some time to think about it

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, yeah
