Let The Last Night Be The Longest

Mark Olson, Gary Louris

[Verse 1]
I walked the last mile home
In this heart was born a shame
Lovin' you no longer
No matter what I tried
The fear we shared tonight
Keeps coming back to mind

[Verse 2]
I'll find an old barroom
Settle in for good
Forget about the past close behind me
No matter what I tried
The fear we shared tonight
Keeps coming back to mind

[Chorus 1]
Westbound train is leaving
Darling, can't you see?
Let the last night be the longest
In a lonesome memory

[Verse 1]
I walked the last mile home
In this heart was born a shame
Lovin' you no longer
No matter what I tried
The fear we shared tonight
Keeps coming back to mind

[Verse 2]
I'll find an old barroom
Settle in for good
Forget about the past close behind me
No matter what I tried
The fear we shared tonight
Keeps coming back to mind

[Chorus 2]
Sun up in the Midwest
Darling, can't you see?
Let the last night be the longest
In a lonesome memory

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 1]
Westbound train is leaving
Darling, can't you see?
Let the last night be the longest
In a lonesome memory

[Verse 2]
I'll find an old barroom
Settle in for good
Forget about the past close behind me
No matter what I tried
The fear we shared tonight
Keeps coming back to mind

[Chorus 2]
Sun up in the Midwest
Darling, can't you see?
Let the last night be the longest
In a lonesome memory
Let the last night be the longest
In a lonesome memory
