Cigarette smoke, silhouettes most under streetlights and lampposts
When the sun's down outside of town where the lonesome lose all hope
I was born to run, you were made to stay, so hold me close
Can't lose you and I choose you, so don't let me go
I'm a dreamer, a faith believer, and I'm always gonna need a little more
On a highway, southbound driving, you still feel like home
I'm trying to live outside my head, I'm on the road
Holding on tight, hope I don't lose sight of where I'm tryna go, oh-oh
Lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
I'll go with no tears, I'll leave here without screaming
And all the way, I think of the times where I wasn't always bleeding
Lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
I'm runnin', you're gunnin' for somewhere new to be
Four wheels, concrete fields is all there is to see
So let's make some noise and hope to God, He hears our plea
Right now, I know somehow, we'll make it and be free, oh-oh
Lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
I'll go with no tears, I'll leave here without screaming
And all the way, I think of the times where I wasn't always bleeding
Lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
Lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
I'll go with no tears, I'll leave here without screaming
And all the way, I think of the times where I wasn't always bleeding
So lay me down, my dear, when I finally stop dreaming
