What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
There's a young man in the corner playing 'Crazy' all night long
2
quarters piled high upon the table
3
He orders Wild Turkey and with a quick wit and a smile
4
he says, 'My darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable'
5
But his baseball cap and this bar-room rap
6
tell me a different story
7
that this is not my prince to grant all my wishes
8
Just another lonely country-boy grown weary of the night
9
Just another boy with a sink full of dirty dishes
10
Where are you tonight?
11
When I left you in my dreams last night
12
you promised me that we would be breaking free
13
Where are you tonight?
14
He tells me of the back roads
15
and how we'll drive them all night long
16
how the days will fade and the moon will hang forever
17
and how the cloud of dust we'll kick up will linger like a song
18
and the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender
19
Then I catch us in the bar-room mirror
20
with his arm around my shoulder
21
this girl I see has grown so unfamiliar
22
and as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side
23
she can't help but laugh at a life grown so peculiar
24
Where are you tonight?
25
I don't think I can face tomorrow's light
26
not knowing if you'll be there to guide me
27
Where are you tonight?
28
Where are you tonight?
29
I think that I'll make it through all right,
30
but I'd love to have you just one more time beside me
