Almost Daylight

YOU'RE MY GUARD RAIL WHEN I'M ON THE ROAD YOU'RE MY SHELTER FROM THE RAIN AND COLD
WHEN MY CANDLE IS BURNING LOW
YOU'RE MY BEACON, I KNOW WHERE TO GO

YOU'RE THE PLAIN TRUTH WHEN THE STORY'S TOLD YOU'RE THE PUNCH LINE TO MY FAVORITE JOKE YOU'RE MY BEST FRIEND, YOU'RE MY LEANING POST YOU'RE MY ANGEL WHEN I'M SEEING GHOSTS

STARING OUT THE DOOR OF A MOTEL ROOM
WAITING FOR THE SUN TO STARE DOWN THE MOON ANOTHER LONG NIGHT
THE RATES ARE LOW BUT THE COST IS HIGH
IF I DIDN'T HAVE YOU I'D NEVER GET BY
IT'S ALL RIGHT, IT'S ALMOST DAYLIGHT

AFTER HOUSTON IT'S SAN ANTONE
MILES OF LONELY BUT I'M NOT ALONE
YOU'RE THE REASON I AIN'T TURNED TO STONE
I'M A GYPSY ON MY WAY HOME

STARING OUT THE DOOR OF A MOTEL ROOM
WAITING FOR THE SUN TO STARE DOWN THE MOON ANOTHER LONG NIGHT
THE RATES ARE LOW BUT THE COST IS HIGH
IF I DIDN'T HAVE YOU I'D NEVER GET BY
IT'S ALL RIGHT,
IT'S ALMOST DAYLIGHT
