The full moon's glowing out so bright, it's light out on the highway I can't hear the engine for the wheels out on the road The wind is blowing freezing, but it keeps my eyes wide open It's 3AM and drivin's far and it hauls a heavy load I gotta tell her that I'm sorry I gotta tell her I was wrong I gotta show her I still love her And I been drivin' all night long A hundred miles from nowhere, there are houses on the highway Empty and dark, a place that someone once called home Maybe they put sheets on chairs and tables like the movies But I know that in real life, they're as empty as my soul I gotta tell her that I'm sorry I gotta tell her I was wrong And I gotta show her I still love her I been drivin' all night long And if I fail and I turn my wheel into that semi coming I know well that there's a man in there just trying to get home And waiting up and worrying is a woman who loves him dearly I ain't thinking clearly, 'cause I been drivin' all night long People think I'm lazy, and I'm scared to just stop runnin' People think I'm crazy, and I don't know that she's gone But I know that I've got two hundred miles to make 'fore mornin' I don't think too much, 'cause I been drivin' all night long I gotta tell her that I'm sorry I gotta tell her I was wrong I gotta show her I still love her I been drivin' all night long I gotta tell her that I'm sorry I gotta tell her I was wrong I gotta show her I still love her And I been drivin' all night long
