[00:00.30]Twenty miles left to the show
[00:10.85]Hello, my old country, hello
[00:16.28]Stars are just beginning to appear
[00:19.73]And I have never in my life before been here
[00:25.17]And it's my heart, not me, who cannot drive
[00:32.21]At which conclusion you arrived
[00:37.23]Watching me sit here bolt upright and cry
[00:41.31]For no good reason at the Eastering sky
[00:44.71]And the tilt of this strange nation
[00:52.06]And the will to remain for the duration
[00:57.21]Waving the flag
[01:02.67]Feeling it drag
[01:07.61]Like a bump on a bump on a log, baby
[01:13.02]Like I'm in a fist fight with a fog, baby
[01:18.45]Step-ball-change and a pirouette
[01:22.23]And I regret, I regret
[01:29.26]How I said to you, 'honey, just open your heart'
[01:33.05]When I've got trouble even opening a honey jar
[01:39.07]And that right there is where we are...
[01:42.32]And I been 'fessing double fast
[01:51.38]Addressing questions nobody asked
[01:56.38]I'll get this joy off of my chest at last
[02:00.52]And I will love you 'til the noise has long since passed
[02:05.38]And I did not mean to shout, just drive
[02:11.94]Just get us out, dead or alive
[02:17.03]A road too long to mention, lord, it's something to see!
[02:21.03]Laid down by the good intentions paving company
[02:25.21]All the way to the thing we've been playing at, darlin'
[02:31.66]I can see that you're wearing your staying hat, darlin'
[02:36.97]For the time being all is well
[02:40.87]Won't you love me a spell?
[02:46.30]This is blindness beyond all conceiving
[02:53.03]Well, behind us the road is leaving, yeah, leaving
[02:58.43]And falling back
[03:00.15]Like a rope gone slack
[03:07.29]Well, I saw straight away that the lay was steep
[03:13.21]But I fell for you, honey, as easy as falling asleep
[03:16.11]And that right there is the course I keep...
[03:22.10]And no amount of talking
[03:29.91]Is going to soften the fall
[03:34.07]But, like after the rain, step out
[03:37.49]Of the overhang, that's all
[03:42.31]It had a nice a ring to it
[03:46.58]When the ol' opry house rang
[03:50.46]So with a solemn auld lang
[03:53.78]Signed, sealed, delivered, I sang
[03:58.14]And there is hesitation
[04:03.26]And it always remains
[04:05.91]Concerning you, me,
[04:10.65]And the rest of the gang
[04:15.47]And in our quiet hour
[04:20.24]I feel I see everything
[04:23.93]And am in love with the hook
[04:28.05]Upon which everyone hangs
[04:32.74]And I know you meant to show the extent
[04:38.03]To which you gave a goddang
[04:41.90]You ranged real hot and real cold but I'm sold
[04:46.26]I am home on that range
[04:50.04]And I do hate to fold
[04:54.13]Right here at the top of my game
[04:58.12]When I've been trying with my whole heart and soul
[05:02.32]To stay right here in the right lane
[05:06.68]But it can make you feel over and old
[05:12.17]Lord, you know it's a shame
[05:15.15]When I only want for you to pull over and hold me
[05:20.02]'Til I can't remember my own name
