So, it comes to the end of the day 

And I'm checking out of my hotel room today 

It's been two years since I've seen your face 

The girl beside me reminds me how you taste 

Since I've seen you, I've been beaten down and bruised 

And every day I'm feeling more and more misused 

I never thought that I would be without your love 

Years gone by, you're still the one I'm thinking of 


Chorus: 

Sweet Savannah, you shine so bright 

May the evening bring your favorite night 

Sweet Savannah, you been gone so long 

But I've got to move on 


It's getting cold, I put my jacket on your back 

And we smoke a cigarette, the last one in the pack 

I still remember exactly what you said 

That you had demons that you couldn't put to bed 

Now I'm leaving, yeah, I'm moing out west 

And it's time for us to lay our history to rest 

I still remember a tear drop in your eye 

But you know I couldn't stand to see you cry 


Repeat Chorus 


So I close on this Hollywood night 

Where this counter-culture cultivates an emptiness inside 

Would it be different if you were still here in my life 

Would I be sober, and would you be my wife? 


Chorus: 

Sweet Savannah, you shine so bright 

May the evening be your favorite night 

Sweet Savannah, you been sone so long 

But I've got to be movin' on
