I pa**ed your porch today with a smile on my face When I thought about all the flights I take To North Carolina down to see my baby In hopes that when I make, make myself look back in retrospect I'd spend every single dollar spent If I can just get one more chance to be with you for life Nothing is too hard, no drive is too far To get down to Raleigh tonight It's gonna be a long way home Cause every time I hear the road calling out my name I'm gone And I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by It's just for now that I, I'm leaving So believe it or not I choose to believe You're somewhere out there thinking of me And know that I am right here, thinking of you Through looking back in retrospect I loved every single day we spent
I wish I could get just one more chance to be with you for life Nothing is too hard, no state is too far To make it to Raleigh tonight It's gonna be a long way home Cause every time I hear the road calling out my name I'm gone And I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by It's just for now that I, I'm leaving You had stars in your eyes Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under In my mind I'm on one of those flights Cause nothing is too hard, no state is too far I'll get to you It's gonna be a long way home It's gonna be a long way home You had stars in your eyes Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under In my mind I'm on one of those flights
