Night Owl

Lyrics

[Intro] Where the steeples and the skyways meet Through the lonely and deserted streets I've been wandering my way back home To the girl with the secret smile That owns my heart a million miles away Wherever I roam [Chorus] Praying for the bright headlights Coming over the hills (I'll never go away again, I swear) It's turning darker with the passing time But I'll be here still (I hope you're not asleep when I get there) I'm a night owl waiting for you [Verse 1] County lines and water towers I'm making ground, burning daylight hours Getting lost in rolling fields and pastures But as the stars begin to fall I find myself trying to count them all And wish on one to get me there faster [Chorus] Praying for the bright headlights Coming over the hills (I'll never go away again, I swear) It's turning darker with the passing time But I'll be here still (I hope you're not asleep when I get there) I'm a night owl waiting for you [Verse 2] Hurry up, hurry up Before the morning I'll be staying up, staying up Dreaming of you [Chorus] Praying for the bright headlights Coming over the hills (I'll never go away again, I swear) It's turning darker with the passing time But I'll be here still (I hope you're not asleep when I get there) I'm a night owl waiting for you [Outro] I'm a night owl waiting for you
