Well my lady left her lamp light burning   Praying for my safe return   And in a moment I'll be nothing more than gone   The highway churns and burns its greed   Fulfilling every sinners need   And it’s slowly turning pilgrims into pawns      Well I'm out the door and in my truck   And she wishes me the best of luck   And she waves to me as I pull down the drive   I'm swallowed up into the night   Safe behind these dashboard lights   And I thank god that somehow I am still alive      And the moon is almost full tonight   And I can see for miles and miles beneath its light   And the coyotes must be crazy down in the countryside   And my heart it is on fire it seems   Burning images of my old childhood dreams   And they swell, like an angel born in flight   Like the moon is almost full tonight      Well the night drifts by in awesome wonder   Cast beneath the rolling thunder   As I cut a path across these golden fields   Thoughts of her go floating backwards   Hoping happy ever-afters   And raindrops from heavens rafters on my windshield      Let’s turn into a new day darling   Try to hear your own heart calling   The time is now there is no time to wait   Follow on that path you've chosen   Slowly melting come unfrozen   Relieve your guard of his duty at your gate      And the moon is almost full tonight   And I can see for miles and miles beneath its light   And the coyotes must be crazy down in the countryside   And my heart it is on fire it seems   Burning images of my old childhood dreams   And they swell, like an angel born in flight   Like the moon is almost full tonight      And its almost full tonight   And its almost full tonight      Well my lady left her lamp light burning   Praying for my safe return   And in a moment   I'll be nothing more than gone
