Shane:
I've had many times I can tell you
Times when innocence I'd trade for company
And children saw me cryin'
I thought I'd had my share of that
But these miss you nights
Are the longest
Bryan:
Midnight diamonds stud my heaven
Southward burning like the jewels that line her place
And the warm winds that embrace me
Just as surely kissed your face
Yet these miss you nights
They're the longest oh
Chorus:
(Lay down) Lay down all thoughts of your surrender
It's only me who's killin' time
(Play down) Play down all dreams once remembered
It's just the same,this miss-you game
Mark:
Thinkin' of my goin'
How to cut the thread and leave it all behind
Looking moonward for my compass
I take each day as it arrives
But these miss you nights
Are the longest
Shane:
Oh these miss you nights are the longest
