Long Night

Long Night
Came home from her private doctor
Disconnected the telephone
Eyes ablaze like the northern lights
So strung out there was no one home
White line on the burning road
Rolling high, collecting maps
Shades her eyes, a classic disguise,
Rendezvous then she loves and laughs

She's got a long night, long night,
Long night coming up tonight
Cowboy moon over silver road
Time comes due to make her crystal run
If it's all I do, just let me get through
She promised herself this would be the last one
It's all in your head, the doctor said
And she knew he was right
But she was in need of a little more speed
Got a long night coming up tonight
