I see you sittin' there with nothin' on 
But the T.V. set and a glass of somethin' 
I think the rain has stopped but you don't care 
You just sit and stare away 
Old man you know it happens every day 
People come and people go 
I'd like to know just what you think she'd say 
If she saw you now 
Man I swear these are 
 
Long nights 
Long nights 
Long nights alone 
Long nights 
Long nights 
Long nights at home 

I know you feel that you've been cheated, Dad 
I can feel it too, I can feel for you 
If I were crazy I would take your life 
So you could go up there and join your wife 
Old man you know it happens every day 
People come and people go 
Don't you hear me what I'm tryin' to say is 
I'll take care of you 
Man I know that these are 

Long nights 
Long nights 
Long nights alone 
Long nights 
Long nights 
Long nights at home
