Clear Across America Tonight

(album: When It All Goes South - 2001)

Just outside of Austin
I turned on my radio
Tuned it in to a satellite station
She was talking on a call-in show
She said it was over, she'd made her choice
Her mind was made-up by the sound of her voice

Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's coming through loud and clear
Clear across America tonight

Sounded like he really had it coming
All the times he'd done her wrong
She said, I hope he's listening
And hung-up the telephone
All of a sudden, I realized
It was me she was telling goodbye

Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's coming through loud and clear
Clear across America tonight

Hello DJ, put me on the air
Give me the chance to tell her I still care
Get her back on the line, tell her I'm still in love
Said, "Sorry son, but you're breaking up"

Clear across America tonight
Clear coast-to-coast tonight
She's long gone, she's outta here
But she's coming through loud and clear
Across America tonight

Across America tonight
Clear across America tonight
Clear across America tonight
Clear across America tonight...
