Whole Night Through
By Tom Franz
V1
It’s one in the morning
And it just occurred to me
I have not explained things
Thoroughly
Pre
If I say this the right way
You might just let me stay
V2
If I leave now
I could be there by dawn
I can explain exactly
What went wrong
Pre
I can help you understand
Why things did not go as planned
Chorus
I’ll drive the whole night through
A ragged journey to
Stand in front of you
And not know what to do
But I do contend
You could not intend
To cause this harm
V3
Just outside of Soledad
I pull in for some gas
I get that message
And it almost makes me laugh
Pre
Until I start to cry
You have blocked all my replies
Chorus
I drove the whole night through
A ragged journey to
Stand in front of you
And not know what to do
Can I contend
You did not intend
Bridge
The Pinnacles are quite a sight
Back lit by that morning light
The attendant wants to know
Why I won’t leave
Man I need a little time
Eventually I will be fine
I just have no idea
Where I should go
Because you know
Chorus
I drove the whole night through
A ragged journey to
Stand in front of you
And not know what to do
But I can contend
You did intend
To cause this harm
