Kevin Costner & Modern West - The Hero lyrics

There's a freight train roaring through the dead of night Heading straight for Yuma I hear it every time it rolls through this town It's one a.m. and I'm wide awake Too hot for sleeping Those wheels keep spinning 'round and 'round Wheels keep spinning 'round and 'round Me and that train covered lot of ground I wish I may, I wish I might It's gonna be another long hot night Trucks are flying up and down I-10 I can hear them in the distance Tired drivers trying to beat the heat We used to drive with the headlights out Moonlight on the highway You were sleeping with your head in my lap You were sleeping with your head in my lap Life don't get much better than that Hubcaps spinning in the light It's gonna be another long hot night How'd I let it get so wrong? The days roll by but the nights drag on Trying to find a way to get on track But I'm spinning wheels, looking back I'm just spinning wheels, looking back Shots ring out in the middle of a dream Car tires squealing For a moment I wonder where I am I'm right here in this little hot house With no one beside me I'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fan I'm listening to the wobble of the ceiling fan I wish I were a better man Gonna keep trying till I get it right It's gonna be another long hot night Long hot night, long hot night, long hot night
