There's a young man in the corner

playing 'Crazy' all night long

quarters piled high upon the table

He orders Wild Turkey

and with a quick wit and a smile

he says 'My darling you're the one

I'll drape in sable'

But his baseball cap

and this barroom rap

tell me a different story

that this is not my prince

to grant all my wishes

Just another lonely countryboy

grown weary of the night

Just another boy

with a sink full of dirty dishes

Where are you tonight

When I left you in my dreams last night

you promised me that

we would be breaking free

Where are you tonight

He tells me of the back roads

and how we'll drive them all night long

how the days will fade

and the moon will hang forever

and how the cloud of dust

we'll kick up will linger like a song

and the myth will grow

about the two who refused to surrender

Then I catch us in the barroom mirror

with his arm around my shoulder

this girl I see has grown so unfamiliar

and as she stands to leave

with a stranger by her side

she can't help but laugh

at a life grown so peculiar

Where are you tonight

I don't think I can face tomorrow's light

not knowing

if you'll be there to guide me

Where are you tonight

Where are you tonight

I think that I can make it through all right

but I'd love to have you

just one more time beside me
