9 straight hours

The moonlight on your face
Oh, I miss it every day
As I lie awake, dreamin’ ‘bout your smile

The aching in my heart
Reminds me of a start
That I eagerly wait for, once you’re here with me

And then on an impulse
I dump all of my clothes
And decide to wait no more

Oh, I drove 9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you
…straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you

But you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart
Yeah, you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart

The kisses that you kissed,
Yeah they linger on my lips,
As I watch your back, staring me in the eyes

The promise; I will keep,
So I will, I will not be,
No-oh more trouble, between you and your dreams

And I just feel cuckoo
I gave all up, for you
But you decided to wait no more

Oh I drove 9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you
…straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you

And you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart
Yeah, you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart

Yeah, I just feel cuckoo
I gave all up, for you
But you decided to wait no more

And I drove 9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you
…straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9 straight hours, straight hours
9… to get to you

And you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart
Yeah, you left me with a broken heart
That you so easily tore apart
