lyrics

If it weren't for all these cars, we'd be sleeping out under the stars
Instead of running round these bars playing music til dawn
But out in the woods I'm learning there's a great fire burning
And you and I were yearning for new love to come along

I left my heart in a rocky mountain silo. another in a cool Ohio lake
Now rolling into Nashville, I'm feeling kind of bashful
Cause I'm running out of hearts for these music men to break

Now I spend my nights under honky tonk stage lights
I try with all my might to forget who I adore
But bedtime comes so soon, all alone in my own room
And the lonesome midnight moon shines lines upon the floor
