Lyrics

[00:00.00] Long Ride Home
[00:03.31]
[00:04.31] Patty Griffin - Elizabethtown
[00:07.26]
[00:10.30] Long black limousine
[00:16.56] Shiniest car I've ever seen
[00:22.41] The back seat is nice and clean
[00:27.17] She rides as quiet as a dream
[00:32.30] Someone dug a hole six long
[00:35.32] feet in the ground
[00:37.05] I said goodbye to you
[00:39.16] and I threw my roses down
[00:42.09] Ain't nothing left at all
[00:44.13] in the end of being proud
[00:46.65] With me riding in a race car
[00:49.15] and you flying through the clouds
[00:51.15]
[00:52.61] I've had some time to think about you
[00:57.51] And watch the stone set like a stone
[01:02.58] I've had some time to think about you
[01:06.20] On the long ride home
[01:09.72]
[01:19.06] One day I took your tiny hand
[01:23.62] Put your finger in the wedding band
[01:29.44] Your daddy gave a piece of land
[01:33.96] We laid ourselves the best of plans
[01:39.30] Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
[01:44.13] Forty years of things you wish you'd never said
[01:48.72] How hard would it have been to say
[01:51.25] some kinder words instead
[01:53.12] I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red
[01:58.56]
[01:59.26] I've had some time to think about you
[02:03.99] And watch the stone set like a stone
[02:08.37] I've had some time to think about you
[02:12.85] On the long ride home
[02:17.27]
[02:21.45] Headlights staring at the driveway
[02:25.82] The house is dark as it can be
[02:31.49] I go inside and all is silent
[02:35.25] It seems as empty as the inside of me
[02:40.80]
[02:41.01] I've had some time to think about you
[02:46.15] And watch the stone set like a stone
[02:51.15] I've had some time to think about you
[02:54.93] On the long, on the long
[02:59.93] On the long, on the long
[03:05.38] ride home
[03:08.75]
[03:11.59] -THE END-
