The light from the neon night Silently lights up the sky Sails through the window To dance with the tears in her eyes She tenderly turns and she runs Her soft hands through my hair I've never doubted one minute Just how much she cares The tight circle draws close But somehow I know it's alright There's never a feeling of chains But of refuge from night I find myself seeking her hand As I drift off to sleep If I'd never known her God only knows where I'd be There was a time when the sun Goin' down frightened me Alone on a back road On my way back to Tennessee Just out of Monroe one night God, I thought I was gone I cried I've run out of time If I only had known Yesterdays newspaper Forecast no rain for today
