I passed your porch today with a smile on my face 
When I thought about all the flights 
I take To 
North Carolina down to see my baby 
In hopes that when 
I make, make myself look back in retrospect 
I'd spend every single dollar spent 
If I can just get one more chance to be with you for life 
Nothing is too hard, no drive is too far 
To get down to 
Raleigh tonight 
It's gonna be a long way home 
Cause every time 
I hear the road calling out my name 
I'm gone And 
I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by 
It's just for now that 
I, I'm leaving 
So believe it or not 
I choose to believe 
You're somewhere out there thinking of me 
And know that 
I am right here, thinking of you 
Through looking back in retrospect 
I loved every single day we spent 
I wish I could get just one more chance to be with you for life 
Nothing is too hard, no state is too far 
To make it to 
Raleigh tonight 
It's gonna be a long way home 
Cause every time 
I hear the road calling out my name 
I'm gone And 
I'm gonna take my time watching these days go by 
It's just for now that 
I, I'm leaving 
You had stars in your eyes 
Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under 
In my mind 
I'm on one of those flights 
Cause nothing is too hard, no state is too far 
I'll get to you 
It's gonna be a long way home 
It's gonna be a long way home 
You had stars in your eyes 
Just like southern skies that we spent all our time under 
In my mind 
I'm on one of those flights
