Almost Daylight - Chris Knight

You’re my guardrail when I’m on the road

You’re my shelter from the rain and cold

When my candle is burning low

You’re my beacon, I know where to go

You’re the plain truth when the story’s told

You’re the punch line to my favorite joke

You’re my best friend, you’re my leaning post

You’re my angel when I’m seeing ghosts

I’m staring out the door of a motel room

Waitin' for the the sun to stare down the moon

Another long night

The rates are low but the cost is high

If I didn’t have you, I’d never get by

It’s all right, it’s almost daylight

After Houston, it’s San Antone

Miles of lonely but I’m not alone

You’re the reason I ain’t turned to stone

I’m a gypsy on my way home

I’m staring out the door of a motel room

Waitin' for the the sun to stare down the moon

Another long night

The rates are low but the cost is high

If I didn’t have you, I’d never get by

It’s all right, it’s almost daylight

It’s all right, it’s almost daylight
