Heart Of The Night

Come on, let's go baby, don't even pack This town feels like a cage and honey, I'm not made like that I can see the maybe in the jasmine of your eye I'm a Roman candle baby, do you have a light? Put lightning in this Thunderbird 'tll the metal comes alive The rhythm of the road will give these horses wings to fly And my true north is anywhere I can leave it all behind Let's point this thing west into the chest of the still beating heart of the night I know the crazy in these words coming from my mouth But I swear that's where I'm going girl, if we don't leave right now I'll be your wildfire you be my Santa Ana wind Turn every town we never been to into somewhere that we've been Yeah, put lightning in this Thunderbird 'til the metal comes alive The rhythm of the road will give these horses wings to fly And my true north is anywhere I can leave it all behind Let's point this thing west into the chest of the still beating heart of the night I watched my old man grow older and slower These factory wages weighing on his shoulders This town was a boulder that just broke his back No, I ain't going out like that Put lightning in this Thunderbird 'til the metal comes alive Yeah, the rhythm of the road will give these horses wings to fly And my true north is anywhere I can leave it all behind Let's point this thing west into the chest of the still beating heart of the night --- Heart of the Night - Eric Church
