The Jayhawks let the last night be the longest

I walked the last mile home

In this heart was born a shame

Loving you no longer, no matter what I tried

The feeling shared tonight keeps coming back to mind



I'll find an old bar room, settle in for good

Forget about the past close behind me

No matter what I tried

The feeling shared tonight keeps coming back to mind



Westbound train is leaving, darling can't you see?

Let the last night be the longest in a lonesome memory



I walked the last mile home

In this heart was born a shame

Loving you no longer, no matter what I tried

The feeling shared tonight keeps coming back to mind



Sun up in the Midwest, darling can't you see?

Let the last night be the longest in a lonesome memory



Westbound train is leaving, darling can't you see?

Let the last night be the longest in a lonesome memory



I'll find an old bar room, settle in for good

Forget about the past close behind me

No matter what I tried

The feeling shared tonight keeps coming back to mind



Sun up in the Midwest, darling can't you see?

Let the last night be the longest in a lonesome memory

Let the last night be the longest in a lonesome memory
