Long Night Coming (Work Tape)

(album: The Work Tapes - 2021)

I long for days when miles stretch out with no ending
Somewhere to play 'cause that's where my soul is uplifted
I need a change, I know that my heart is still growing
I need an open road of possibility with no threat of slowing

So until we meet again, I want you to know
Build with me, it'll be hard to do but I feel a long night coming

I was born to live my life as a rambler
Oh, and I can breathe with the road beneath my feet
I wanna sing in a crowd of people I've never met before
A song that makes me love and remember what I'm working for

Maybe tonight, I'll find a Tiki bar in Tulsa with the grass roof
Or I'll hit the Novo in San Luis Obispo, take the corner booth
I got time to hit the library in Knoxville, I know the doorman
I don't even need to sleep, I'll sleep tomorrow on the bus ride down to Houston

So until we meet again, I want you to know
Build with me, it'll be hard to do but I feel a long night coming

I was born to live my life as a rambler
Oh, and I can breathe with the road beneath my feet
I wanna sing in a crowd of people I've never met before
A song that makes me love and remember what I'm working for

Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
I need it, I need it
Oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
I need it, I need it

I was born to live my life as a rambler
Oh, and I can breathe with the road beneath my feet
I wanna sing in a crowd of people I've never met before
A song that makes me love and remember what I'm working for
A song that makes me love and remember what I'm working for
A song that makes me love and remember what I'm working for
