Justin Townes Earle - Today and a Lonely Night lyrics

For six weeks straight I've been staying up too late Looked on the pieces page by page Nothing learned, nothing gained There's been nowhere to go Threats on the city and the bridges are closed Yesterday fell four foot of snow From (?) black sky brought a bright white glow But I've been thinking of going west Just to climb up as high as I can get Press my souls to paths great men settin' Push me right out over the edge Cause I know inside I'll find my way back to the city sometime Feel the ground shake as the train goes by Not a star in the sky My baby she just called and said The midtown tunnel's opened So let's ride And I said darling I just don't feel much like going to Brooklyn tonight I should try to breathe Lay me down and try to sleep Count each time my heart skips a beat Not a light in the house but what comes in from the street
