Patty Griffin Long Road Lyrics:
Long black limousine
Shiniest car I've ever seen
The back seat is nice and clean
She rides as quiet as a dream
Someone dug a hole six long feet in the ground
I said goodbye to you and I threw my roses down
ain't nothing left at all in the end of being proud
With me riding in this car, and you
flying through them clouds

I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home

One day I took your tiny hand
Put your finger in a wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land

We made ourselves the best of plans
Forty years go by with someone laying in your bed
Forty years of things you say you
wish you'd never said
How hard would it have been to say
some kinder words instead
I wonder as I stare up at the sky turning red

I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long ride home

Headlights searching up the driveway
Our house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
And seems as empty as the inside of me

I've had some time to think about it
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I've had some time to think about you
On the long, on the long
Oh the long, on the long
On the long ride home
