There's a young man in the corner playing 'Crazy' all night long

quarters piled high upon the table

He orders Wild Turkey and with a quick wit and a smile

he says, 'My darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable'

But his baseball cap and this bar-room rap

tell me a different story

that this is not my prince to grant all my wishes

Just another lonely country-boy grown weary of the night

Just another boy with a sink full of dirty dishes



Where are you tonight?

When I left you in my dreams last night

you promised me that we would be breaking free

Where are you tonight?



He tells me of the back roads

and how we'll drive them all night long

how the days will fade and the moon will hang forever

and how the cloud of dust we'll kick up will linger like a song

and the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender



Then I catch us in the bar-room mirror

with his arm around my shoulder

this girl I see has grown so unfamiliar

and as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side

she can't help but laugh at a life grown so peculiar



Where are you tonight?

I don't think I can face tomorrow's light

not knowing if you'll be there to guide me

Where are you tonight?



Where are you tonight?

I think that I'll make it through all right,

but I'd love to have you just one more time beside me
