The Jayhawks

Let the last night be the longest

The Jayhawks


I walked the last mile home 
In this heart was born a shame 
Loving you no longer 
No matter what I tried 
The feeling shared tonite keeps coming back to mind 

I'll find an old barroom, 
Settle in for good, 
Forget about the past close behind me 
No matter what I tried 
The feeling shared tonite keeps coming back to mind 

Chorus: 
Westbound train is leaving, darling can't you see? 
Let the last night be the longest 
In a lonesome memory 

(Verse 1) 

Chorus 2: 
Sun up in the Midwest, darling can't you see? 
Let the last night be the longest 
in a lonesome memory 

(Chorus 1) 

(Verse 2) 

(Chorus 2) 
Let the last night be the longest 
In a lonesome memory
