You're my guard rail
When I'm on the road
You're my shelter
From the rain and cold
When my candle
Is burning low
You're my beacon
I know where to go
You're the plain truth
When the story's told
You're the punch line
To my favorite joke
You're my best friend
You're my leaning post
You're my angel
When I'm seeing ghosts
Staring out the door of a motel room
Waiting for the sun to stare down the moon
Another long night
The rates are low but the cost is high
If I didn't have you I'd never get by
It's all right
It's almost daylight
After Houston
It's San Antone
Miles of lonely
But I'm not alone
You're the reason
I ain't turned to stone
I'm a gypsy
On my way home
Staring out the door of a motel room
Waiting for the sun to stare down the moon
Another long night
The rates are low but the cost is high
If I didn't have you I'd never get by
It's all right
It's almost daylight
It's all right
It's almost daylight
