A Long Way Home

Just another midnight drive through the city lights
There's no sleep tonight, no alibi, just trying to clear my head.
Driving past the warning signs just to feel alive
There's no love tonight, no you and I
Do I let go of you now? I don't want to hold you down.

Tonight, I don't want to be the one to say goodbye,
To a dream I thought would never die,
But you're doing alright on your own.
Tonight, I don't want to be the one saying I was wrong,
Be the one who leads you on somewhere I don't know
It's a long way home.

Just another lonely dawn, I've got my fingers crossed
I walked the line a thousand times, the best that I knew how
All I know, I fear for you I really do.
Do I let go of you now? I don't want to hold you down.

I won't be the reason you give up your dreaming
Don't let me hold you, there's so much more for you.

I don't want to be the one.
