[ Featuring the Magic Valley ]
I'm almost back in Texas crossing that Louisiana line
And I'm looking for an exit I ain't sure I'm gonna find
I'm blinded by the headlights, white lines and highway signs
And that gas light keeps flashing on but I know I'll be just fine
Cause I'm driven by the darkness and I ain't got time for sleep
Cause I got questions that need answering and promises to keep
Like won't you tell me how much did you miss my morning smile
Tell me that the wait was worth all the while
And if there's something else that you have to say to me
Could it wait until the next time I leave
I'm running up my front steps - I'm rattling my keys
I hear someone in the kitchen calling out if it's me
I'm praying you still love me as I'm messing with my hair
I see you walking toward the screen door with that long hard stare
Won't you tell me how much did you miss my morning smile
Tell me that the wait was worth all the while
And if there's something else that you have to say to me
Could it wait until the next time I leave
And it won't be all that long before I'm traveling again
I'm a vagabond deep down but I still get lonesome now and then
I've seen wonders of the world but I always come back home
Cause there's just something that you got that I can't find out on the road
Won't you tell me how much did you miss my morning smile
Tell me that the wait was worth all the while
And if there's something else that you have to say to me
Could it wait until the next time I leave
Could it wait until the next time I leave
