[Intro] [Verse 1] Sitting cross-legged on the porch While summer holds its breath Can't make myself call you back Letters scattered, photos all around My hands keep shaking when I think About tomorrow's light And how you said we'd build a home But I might leave tonight mmmmmmm [Chorus] Oh Even the longest day finds darkness Even the brightest sun burns down I swear I never meant to hurt you But I can't stay in this damn town mmmmm [Verse 2] Your coffee mugs still on the shelf Where the dusts gonna find it Next to all our stubborn plans And the life I left behind it The stars are taking forever To show their faces here Like they know I'm gonna break Everything we built this year mmmmmmm [Chorus] Oh Even the longest day finds darkness Even the brightest sun burns low I've got these photos in my pocket And I'm finally letting go [electric guitar solo] [Bridge] Three hundred miles of open road Everything I thought I knew Is slipping through my hands Like summer rain mmmmmm mmmm [Verse 3] The sky's getting lighter now And my heart beats like a drum Maybe somewhere down this highway I'll become who I'll become And I hope you'll understand someday Why I couldn't stay When the morning finally breaks I'll be, on my way mmmmmm [Chorus] Yeah Even the longest day finds darkness Even the brightest sun must fall But there's peace in knowing sometimes We've got no answers at all.... [musical ending]
