I'm trying to dig up change
For the Kansas Turnpike toll
I'm trying to dig up faith
In the strength left in your soul
These county lines, they flash by
With every cigarette
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had to drive through yet
Every hotel room
Smells like death
The clouds across the moon
Move slow like your breath
I wonder why the good times
Were so easy to forget
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had to drive through yet
The fog lights come on
With the rain
Missouri's gone
But not the pain
And I'm praying to God now
But I don't know if he exists
But what else could I do for you
On a night like this?
Your heart still pumps blood
I wish that it pumped hope
I'm trying to bring you love
At the end of your rope
And I'm blowing back these speed limit signs
Just trying to outrun regret
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had to drive through yet
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had to drive through yet
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had yet
Yeah, this is the longest night
That I've had to drive through yet
