Battled and bruised
I come rolling in
The kids are asleep
Oh, the porch light is dim
I'm just here tonight
I'm only passing through
Because I can't make a living from holding you

Today on the line
We were talking
You said you remember the time
When we could roll on a whim
And I can't build a home
Where I want to
Because I can't make a living from holding you

Takes everything that I've got
The road it don't care if you bleed
I'm haunted by the man that I'm not
And I'm tied to the things I can't leave, oh

Remember the day
We went walking
I promised you then
If you'd let me in
I'll pay for the ring
And I still want to
I just can't make a living from holding you

Takes everything that I've got
The road it don't care if you bleed
I'm haunted by the man that I'm not
And I'm tied to the things I can't leave, oh

Oh, the night won't leave me
Oh, the night won't leave me alone
Oh, the night won't leave me
Oh, the night won't leave me alone
Oh, the night won't leave me
Oh, the night won't leave me alone
Oh, the night won't leave me
Oh, the night won't leave me alone
Oh, the night won't leave me
Oh, the night won't leave me alone
