[Chorus]
Wait a minute
Did I hear you say, you're going far away again?
Try to change it
I can't take the lonely nights without your love

[Verse 1]
Doing the road
Get the music done and move along
What good does it do?
To play your songs for her and hear her say

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Youre rolling along
Life's been good to you and even so
She comes to you
Late at nights the time you hear her say once again

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Try to change it
I can't take the lonely nights without your love
