Nights Are Long Lyrics by Austin Merrill

2021

[Verse 1]
I'm no Hemmingway with a ballpoint
And I'm no Timberlake with a song, no
'cause their words come easy
But me, girl, I'm just some guy
It's hard to share my feelings
But I'm gonna try
[Chorus]
Like an old john boat needs hitchin'
Like a truck needs fuel in the tank
Like a long hard week needs a weekend on the lake
Yeah
Like a large mouth bass needs the water
Like a beer needs a little bit of foam
I need you and all your loving t'ill the break of dawn
Our days are short but our nights are long
[Verse 2]
There's no sleeping in on a monday, no
I'll be tired of hell on the clock
Yeah
'cause your love comes easy
Deep into the midnight hour
Once the sun starts sinking, I'm under your power
[Chorus]
Like an old john boat needs hitchin'
Like a truck needs fuel in the tank
Like a long hard week needs a weekend on the lake
Yeah
Like a large mouth bass needs the water
Like a beer needs a little bit of foam
I need you and all your loving 'till the break of dawn
Our days are short but our nights are long
[Bridge]
And the sun rises up like it's supposed to do
Shining on you
[Chorus reprise]
Like an old john boat needs hitchin'
Like a truck needs fuel in the tank
Like a long hard week needs a weekend on the lake
Woohoo!
Like a large mouth bass needs the water
Like a beer needs a little bit of foam
I need you and all your loving 'till the break of dawn
Yeah
[Outro]
It's a dream we'll keep living 'till we're dead and gone
Our days are short but our nights are long
Our nights are long, girl
(days are short but our nights are long)
