Far End Of The Night

Buddy some Topeka night
 When it's just you and the road
 Seen no tailights there for miles
 And nothin' much but static on the radio
 Wasn't lookin' to the left
 Wasn't lookin' to the right
 Just kept walking' like Virginia to the surf
 Towards the far end of the night
 Time hangs like a noose
 Before me
 Time stills to a crawl
 Grinds so slowly
 Heard my own beloved cry
 I heard my one beloved moan
 What's the use in all the ache we must endure
 I had no good reason why
 Time hangs like a noose
 Before me
 Time stills to a crawl
 Grinds so slowly
 Not a rail to grasp ahold
 Nor a savior there beside
 Juat kept a walkin' like Virginia to the surf
 Towards the far end of the night
 Time hangs like a noose
 Before me
 Time stills to a crawl
 Grinds so slowly
 And time hangs like a noose
 Around me
