Stoplights turn into skylines
and my mind turns to you
two hundred miles behind, off to this roadside dive
wondering how this cup of coffee’s gonna see me through
This has been our story, same sad song
ever since the day, the day you came along
It’s a lonely night in georgia
and everything i do reminds me of being with you
it’s a lonely night but i’ll be alright
cause i’m coming on home, coming on home to you
Skylines turn into stoplights
another town, another crowd
when all the peoples gone home
i’m left all alone, with nothing but you to think about
This has been our story
i know you’ve heard it all before
cause every time i come home
you know i’m right back out that door
It’s a lonely night in georgia
and everything i do reminds me of being with you
it’s a lonely night but i’ll be alright
cause i’m coming on home, coming on home to you
The mark of your body
through these tall olden pines
the sound of your heart beat
brings your skin to mine
your peach can sit right by your southern suns tonight
now, my senses are heightened for the last 100 miles
It’s a lonely night in georgia
and everything i do reminds me of being with you
it’s a lonely night but i’ll be alright
cause i’m coming on home, coming on home to you (3x)
Lord…lord...lord,
i’ve been gone so long
lord, i’ve been on the road so long
but don’t you worry darling
cause i’m coming on home tonight
