Verse 1
There's a young man in the corner, playing crazy all night long.
Quarters piled high upon the table.
And he orders Wild Turkey with a quick wit and a smile.
He says "my darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable."
But his baseball cap, and his barroom rap tell me a different story
That this is not my prince to grant all my wishes
Just another lonely country boy, grown weary of the night.
Just another boy, with a sink full of dirty dishes.
Chrous 1
And where are you tonight?
When I left you in my dreams last night,
You promised me that we would be breaking free.
Where are you tonight?
Verse 2
And he tells me of the backroads, and I will ride them all night long.
And the days of fate and the moon will hang forever.
And a cloud of dust will kick up and linger like a sun.
And the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender.
But as I catch us in the barroom mirror
with his arm around my shoulder,
This girl I see has grown so unfamiliar.
And as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side,
She can't help but laugh at a life turned so peculiar,
Chorus 2
And where are you tonight?
I don't think I can face tomorrow's light,
Not knowing if you'll be there to guide me.
Where are you tonight?
And where are you tonight?
I think I can make it through all right,
But I'd love to have you just one more time beside me.
