Twenty miles left to the show

Hello, my old country, hello

Stars are just beginning to appear

And I have never in my life before been here

[00:-1.00]

And it's my heart, not me, who cannot drive

At which conclusion you arrived

Watching me sit here bolt upright and cry

For no good reason at the Eastering sky

[00:-1.00]

And the tilt of this strange nation

And the will to remain for the duration

Waving the flag

Feeling it drag

[00:-1.00]

Like a bump on a bump on a log, baby

Like I'm in a fist fight with a fog, baby

Step-ball-change and a pirouette

And I regret, I regret

[00:-1.00]

How I said to you, "honey, just open your heart"

When I've got trouble even opening a honey jar

And that right there is where we are...

[00:-1.00]

And I been 'fessing double fast

Addressing questions nobody asked

I'll get this joy off of my chest at last

And I will love you 'til the noise has long since passed

[00:-1.00]

And I did not mean to shout, just drive

Just get us out, dead or alive

A road too long to mention, lord, it's something to see!

Laid down by the good intentions paving company

[00:-1.00]

All the way to the thing we've been playing at, darlin'

I can see that you're wearing your staying hat, darlin'

For the time being all is well

Won't you love me a spell?

[00:-1.00]

This is blindness beyond all conceiving

Well, behind us the road is leaving, yeah, leaving

And falling back

Like a rope gone slack

[00:-1.00]

Well, I saw straight away that the lay was steep

But I fell for you, honey, as easy as falling asleep

And that right there is the course I keep...

[00:-1.00]

And no amount of talking

Is going to soften the fall

But, like after the rain, step out

Of the overhang, that's all

[00:-1.00]

It had a nice a ring to it

When the ol' opry house rang

So with a solemn auld lang

Signed, sealed, delivered, I sang

[00:-1.00]

And there is hesitation

And it always remains

Concerning you, me,

And the rest of the gang

[00:-1.00]

And in our quiet hour

I feel I see everything

And am in love with the hook

Upon which everyone hangs

[00:-1.00]

And I know you meant to show the extent

To which you gave a goddang

You ranged real hot and real cold but I'm sold

I am home on that range

[00:-1.00]

And I do hate to fold

Right here at the top of my game

When I've been trying with my whole heart and soul

To stay right here in the right lane

[00:-1.00]

But it can make you feel over and old

Lord, you know it's a shame

When I only want for you to pull over and hold me

'Til I can't remember my own name

[00:-1.00]
