They Might Be Giants Miscellaneous Lonley American Nights A dream that's old A song that's new Money borrowed, guitar blue True love tries, but has to fail When distance, time and space prevail I can still see the clothes we wore and the bar next door And the dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America There was Milo and me it's true and the songs we knew and a picture of you And a beat up van with a guitar in my hand so I could work it through Lonely American nights Can make you hungry for the arms of someone new But put me under the lights I'd never jeopardize the trust I had with you And I hope you found yourself another lover with a heart that's true Someone to say to you Hold tight, shine bright, tonight I'll be coming right home to you Day light, stay bright, it's alright I'll be makin' it home to you We used to pray for the end of school, for our favorite tune, up in my bedroom Where I would wait for you baby in the parking lot to get you in the afternoon Do you remember the way we talked when I dropped you off 'till the sun came up When I awoke to find you sleeping at the opposite end of the telephone But everything has a price Ambition ordered me to do what I must do Another love sacrificed Another offer to the gods of losing you And I hope you realize my heart will always hold a place for you When I used to say to you Chorus And where were you baby when the wheels on my bus broke down And where was I darlin' when you needed me to be around And I suppose I'll never find another lover with a heart so true Someone to say to you Hold tight Tonight Day light It's alright I can still see the cloths we wore and the bar next door And dirty floor and the day we left home for a rock and roll tour of America There was Milo and me it's true and the songs we knew and a picture of you |
