I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong
I've been drivin' real far out on that open road
I just made it home from where the hopeless go
You gave a mansion to a homeless soul
Brought me in from out the bitter cold and you'll never know what you've done for me
I've been chasing money, you've never run from me
Been by my side through thick and thin
I get to far out and then you reel me in
Bring me back to life
CPR
Show me my past like a VCR
Tell me bout the present like a birthday card
You give me a future I can't see too far
Seems to hard to ever give it back
So just hold the wheel while I hit this track
Imma make that vow while we spin these laps
Circle the world and we gon' write our maps
We gonna tell our story
Make our dreams our facts
Change our lives so we raise our stats
Shine our light baby there's no cap
When the darkness come you strike that match
And when im striking out you help me swing that bat
Got my head all twisted like I still got plets
Never stop ridin' even if I'm flat
I'm in it for the long haul pedal to the mats
I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong
I could lose it all
As long as your still home
I'm here for the long haul baby
I'm drivin' recklessly
I'm here for the long haul baby
As long as you're with me
They don't understand me
I don't think that they see
A little bit of compassion
Is all that I need
Down in the darkness
Everyone knows me, yeah
It's the only place I'm never lonely, hmm
And I put my hand to the man above
Since the day that I found my love
All my vows was wrote in blood, yeah
I get so high that I'm above the stars
Hop in and then take this truck to mars
Everyone loves us and all our scars
So come on then let's ride the night
You can be my gal tonight
I'll show you the other side
It's the end of the world
And the walls cavin' in
All I need is my girl
I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong
I could lose it all
As long as your still home
I'm here for the long haul baby
I'm drivin' recklessly
I'm here for the long haul baby
As long as you're with me
