Long Haul

I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong

I been traveling far out on an open road
I just made it home from where the hopeless go
You gave a mansion to a homeless soul
Brought me in from out the bitter cold
And you'll never know what you've done for me
I've been chasing money, you never run from me
Been by my side through thick and thin
I get too far out and then you reel me in
Bring me back to life, CPR
Show me my past like a VCR
Tell me bout the present like a birthday card
You give me a future, I can't see too far
It seems to hard to ever give it back
So just hold that wheel while I hit this track
Imma make that vow while we spin these laps
Circle the world and we gon' write our maps
We gon' tell our story, make our dreams all facts
Changed our lives so it raised our stats
Shine our light, baby, that's no cap
When the darkness come, you strike that match
When I'm striking out you help me swing that bat
Got my head all twisted like I still got plats
Never stop riding even if on flats
I'm in it for the long haul, pedal to the mats

I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong
I could lose it all
As long as you're still home
I'm here for the long haul, baby
I'm driving recklessly
I'm here for the long haul, baby
As long as you're with me

They don't understand me
I don't think that they see
A little bit of compassion
Is all that I need
Down in the darkness everyone knows me, yeah
It's the only place I'm never lonely, mhm
And I put my hand to the man to the man above
Since the day that I found my love
All my vows was wrote in blood
I get so high that I'm above the stars
Hop on in, let's take this truck to Mars
Everyone loves us and all our scars
So come on in lets ride the night
You can be my guiding light
I'll show you the other side
This the end of the world
And the walls caving in
All I need is my girl

I don't need to be told
That what I do is wrong
I could lose it all
As long as you're still home
I'm here for the long haul, baby
I'm driving recklessly
I'm here for the long haul, baby
As long as you're with me
