lyrics

Long is the night when I'm driving alone
It’s just me in the car and you’re back at home
With a bottle of wine and a smile that says ‘come on in’
It’s dark outside and poring with rain
But there’s joy in here, I’m coming home again
Coming back to you, one mile at a time

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road

As the radio plays I’m singing along
To a tune we danced to in a time long gone
And I feel you now, just like I did then
When I get home it’s like we were never apart
But when I leave it simply breaks your heart
So I guess we know, something has to change

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you knLong is the night when I'm driving alone
It’s just me in the car and you’re back at home
With a bottle of wine and a smile that says ‘come on in’
It’s dark outside and poring with rain
But there’s joy in here, I’m coming home again
Coming back to you, one mile at a time

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road

As the radio plays I’m singing along
To a tune we danced to in a time long gone
And I feel you now, just like I did then
When I get home it’s like we were never apart
But when I leave it simply breaks your heart
So I guess we know, something has to change

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road

500 miles and it’s getting late
But you’re waiting there by that rusty gate
Just like you’ve always been, with beauty in your eyes
Our home is warm the fire alight
The prefect scene on a perfect night
To be home again with our love shining bright

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road
You know I was born for the roadow I was born for the road

500 miles and it’s getting late
But you’re waiting there by that rusty gate
Just like you’ve always been, with beauty in your eyes
Our home is warm the fire alight
The prefect scene on a perfect night
To be home again with our love shining bright

Throw open that door……. and hold me
Baby never let me go
We both know its been way too long
Could you please please…. forgive me
I know not what I do
But sometimes I must bear a heavy load
And you know I was born for the road
You know I was born for the road
