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 the clouds

I´ve had some time to think about you
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 the wedding band
Your daddy gave a piece of land
We laid 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 you
And watch the sun sink like a stone
I´ve had some time to think about you
On the long ride home

Headlights staring at the driveway
The house is dark as it can be
I go inside and all is silent
It seems as empty as the inside of me

I´ve had some time to think about you
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
