Lynn Miles Eight Hour Drive lyrics

8 hour drive on a two lane blacktop
Nobody loves me today
3 in the morning, hard scrabble country
Went and pushed everybody away

I need drink
I need a bed
I need a stronger resolve
I need a future
And a heart that ain't broken
'Cause you never loved me at all

I am watching the sunrise fill up the sky
It's how I try to make you feel
I learned your tough lesson
Don't get in too close
When you find out nothing is real

I need some courage
I need some comfort
I need a safe place to fall


I need a future
And a heart that ain't broken
'Cause you never loved me at all

Now I'm packing my things for the long trip out
I took a good look around the place
There weren't any flowers
Any hearts, any hope
No love, not even a trace

'Cause you made love bitter
You made it rain
And you left me with no one to call
I need a future
And a heart that ain't broken
'Cause you never loved me at all
You never loved me at all
