WELL I GOT MYSELF
IN TROUBLE
I'VE BEEN THERE BEFORE
DOING SOMETHING
THAT I SWORE I'D
NEVER DO
ANYMORE
I STAYED OUT
LAST NIGHT DRINKIN'
AND I CRAWLED HOME
HALF PAST FIVE
THROUGH THE WINDOW
I COULD SEE HER
SHE WAS CRYIN'
CRY CRY CRYIN'
WITH MY LIGHTENING
QUICK REACTION
I SLIPPED AROUND
THE HOUSE
AND I SNEAKED INTO
THE BACK DOOR
JUST AS QUIET AS
A MOUSE
FIRST MY RIGHT FOOT
THEN MY LEFT ONE
ANOTHER STEP
AND I'M HOME FREE
WHEN AN ANGRY VOICE
I KNEW SO WELL
SAID THESE WORDS
TO ME
GONNA BE MILES
ACROSS THE BEDROOM
TONIGHT
NO UNDER COVER
HONKY TONKIN'
WHEN WE TURN OUT
THE LIGHT
THE ONLY THING
TO HOPE FOR
IS SOME TIME
TO GET THINGS RIGHT
GONNA BE MILES
ACROSS THE BEDROOM
TONIGHT
WELL I THOUGHT
THAT IT WAS MORNING
BY THE POUNDING
IN MY HEAD
SO I REACHED ACROSS
THE PILLOW
BUT I FOUND
AN EMPTY BED
HER TRACK LED
TO THE KITCHEN
I COULD SMELL
THE COFFEE BREW
ON THE TABLE
LAY A SIMPLE NOTE
IT SAID BOY
I'M LEAVIN' YOU
GONNA BE
MILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM
TONIGHT
NO UNDER COVER
HONKY TONKIN'
WHEN I TURN OUT
THE LIGHT
THE BEST THAT I
COULD HOPE FOR
IS SOME TIME
TO GET THINGS RIGHT
GONNA BE MILES
ACROSS THE BEDROOM
TONIGHT
8 BAR
INSTRUMENTAL
BREAK
IN A WEEK
I FOUND MY SENSES
IN A HEARTBEAT
FOUND THE PHONE
SO I PLACE A CALL
TO HER MOTHER
CAUSE I KNEW
THAT'S WHERE
SHE'D GONE
I TOLD HER
I WAS SINKING
AND I WOULD
SURELY DROWN
IF SHE'D ONLY
COME BACK TO ME
I WOULD NEVER LET HER
NEVER LET HER
NEVER LET HER DOWN
FOR A MOMENT
THERE WAS SILENCE
AND SHE SAID
I LOVE YOU TOO
AND MY MAMA
DRIVES ME CRAZY
I'LL BE COMIN' HOME
TO YOU
NO MORE
MILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM
TONIGHT
GONNA BE
UNDER COVER
HONKY TONKIN'
WHEN WE TURN OUT
THE LIGHTS
THE BEST THAT WE CAN
HOPE FOR
IS THE TIME
TO DO THINGS RIGHT
NO MORE
MILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM
GONNA BE
SMILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM TONIGHT
THEY'LL BE SOME
UNDER COVER
HONKY TONKIN'
THE MINUTE WE
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
THE BEST THAT WE
CAN HOPE FOR
IS THE TIME
TO DO THINGS RIGHT
NO MORE
MILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM
GONNA BE
SMILES ACROSS
THE BEDROOM TONIGHT
GONNA BE
UNDER COVER
HONKY TONKIN'
WHEN WE
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS
