[Verse 1]
It's like Miles Davis
Bring me to the cool
In this dull aching night
This restless room

This deep shake inside of me
Calm waters through
Like an angel of mercy
Miles bring in the cool

Like Miles Davis
In the sweat and the cool
This dark desperate night
Part of the moon

This deep shake inside of me
Put your calm waters through
Like an angel of mercy
Darling bring in the cool

[Chorus]
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
I will leave the front light on
When the night is all wrong
Don't wait too long
[Verse 2]
Like poor Mr. Pitiful, in the grays and the blues
I'm a nervous wreck tonight
In these opera house rooms
In these chambers of uncertainty
In these hallways of doubt
In these dark tossin' waters of my soul
Don't let me drown

[Chorus]
Don't take too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
Yes, I'll leave the front light on
When the night is all wrong
Don't wait too long

[Bridge]
Why don't you sing to me on this long drive home
And let the sound of your voice sway sweet and slow
As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground
Down, down, down from our youth to the ground

We might always be blue

Hey
[Chorus]
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody's wrecked on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
Yes, I will leave the front light on
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
I will leave the front light on

As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground
Down, down, down from our youth to the ground
As we go down, down, down from our youth to the ground
Down, down, down from our youth to the ground
Down, down, down, down, down
