Call me when you get to Austin
When you're filling up at that Chevron station
Get yourself a coffee, and power through
It's a long, long road back to you
Days pass and turn into nights
Those farms and fields fade into town lights
Dip into savings, rent yourself a room
It's a long, long road back to you
Back to you
Back to you
It's a long, long road back to you
Front porch, Luna's humming a tune
Moon's swinging low, can you see it too?
Clouds are rolling in, soon they'll block the view
It's a long, long road back to you
Ten short of a ticket down to Denver
Borrowed cash and a bank-cleared letter
Waiting for this check to come through
It's a long, long road back to you
Back to you
Back to you
It's a long, long road back to you
