The Long One

There's no holdin' you back when you're leavin'
I'll have to face it alone until tomorrow
And as your fading awayI know it's a matter of hours till the tears begin
Guess I'll turn out the lights and I'll settle inFor the long one for the restless night
As your memory fades with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Layin' in the darkness, prayin' for the mornin' sun
It's a long oneI've been through this before it wasn't easy
I think I'm ready this time I think I'm ready
I'll lay down on this bed and thenI'll imagine your touch and I'll see your face
And the shadows will come and surround this placeFor the long one for the restless night
As your memory fades with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Layin' in the darkness, prayin' for the mornin' sun
It's a long oneThese days go by so fast
I just turn around then they're gone
And when the night time goes
It's long and lonely, holdin' on and onFor the long one for the restless night
As your memory fades with no end in sight
It's a strong one and it holds on tight
Layin' in the darkness, prayin' for the mornin' sun
It's a long one
It's a long one
