Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just like Miles Davis bring me to the cool
You stole late at night this restless room
And this deep shake inside me
Calm waters through
Like an angel of mercy
Miles bringin' the cool
[Verse 2]
Miles Davis and the sweat in the cool
It's dark desperate night
Part of pool
This deep shake inside of me
But your calm waters through
The angel of mercy
Time to bring in the pool
[Verse 3]
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
I will leave the front light on
When the night is all wrong
Don't wait too long
[Verse 4]
My part in this too pitiful
In the craze and the blues
I'm a nervous wreck tonight
In this opera house rooms
In these chambers of uncertainty
In these hallways of doubt
In these dark tossin' waters of my soul
Don't let me drown
[Verse 5]
Don't take too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
Yes, I'll leave the front light on
The night is all wrong
Don't wait too long
[Verse 6]
Why don't you sing to me on this long drive home?
Let the sound of your voice sway sweet and slow
As we go down, down, down from a youth to the ground
Down, down, down from a youth to the ground
We might always be blue
Hey
[Verse 7]
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody's wrecked on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
Yes, I will leave the front light on
Don't wait too long to come home
Everybody wrecks on this long drive home
Don't wait too long to come home
I will leave the front light on
[Verse 8]
As we go down, down, down from a youth to the ground
Down, down, down from a youth to the ground
Down, down, down from a youth to the ground
Down, down, down, down, down
