The sun set hours ago
No city lights to guide me home
But we're getting close
Or so a man can surely hope
And I won't be there for long
But I'll see the face that I forgot
And I'll tell her just to wait
A few more months until I get back
So I'll go home one last time
Just to say my sorries and my goodbyes
And I'm racing the Earth's rotation
Even though I know that I can't win
Cars go too fast
Like dying hearts of speeding souls
They don't carry anyone home
Just strangers trying to be left alone
I'll take the Greyhound home
And as the wheels turn they rock me away
Counting lines on pavement
I'll just see white for the end of my days
So I'll go home one last time
Just to say my sorries and my goodbyes
And I'm racing the Earth's rotation
Even though I know that I can't win
