Tom Paxton - Blue Mountain Road lyrics

Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight With every mile we travel into the mornin' light We get closer to those blue eyes that make my life so bright Oh, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight I see moonlight splashing through the trees and ripples on the lake I'm headin' home to Woodstock, trying hard to stay awake Three o'clock in the mornin' on this winding road alone Fifty miles an hour says, two hours you'll be home So, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight With every mile we travel into the mornin' light We get closer to those blue eyes that make my life so bright Oh, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight I know that my lady's lyin' sleepin' in our bed I know my son has dreams of motorcycles in his head I know this road blindfolded; every tree and dotted line - And when it takes me home, it's just an old, old friend of mine So, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight With every mile we travel into the mornin' light We get closer to those blue eyes that make my life so bright Oh, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight Every bend on every hill is one less hill to go Every mile's another left behind Engine, don't you fail me now You've got to get me home somehow I've got one sweet woman on my mind Oh-ho, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight With every mile we travel into the mornin' light We get closer to those blue eyes that make my life so bright Oh, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight Every time I leave I tell myself this time's the last Every day away I feel my lifetime rushin' past I've seen half this world and I can tell you what it showed Everything I love is down this long Blue Mountain Road So, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight With every mile we travel into the mornin' light We get closer to those blue eyes that make my life so bright Oh, Blue Mountain Road, take me with you tonight Oh, Blue Mountain Road Take me with you tonigh
