I've been so many miles
I've done forgot how long I've been gone
I've worn a hole right through my soul in both these shoes I've got on
I've ran the streets, I've shot the breeze
I've seen the world, but found out
My ragged heart's still on a string that's tied to you

And I'm on my way (hey)
I'm almost there
I look like hell, baby, but I don't care
Pick out your best dress, leave it on the floor
I'm coming in hot, baby
Can't wait no more

Yeah, so baby, leave the light on and let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider, it won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy, bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war

(Hey)

You kept a candle in the window
Waiting, burning for me
I'm turning home
I'll turn you on as soon as I turn the key
Your gravity is pulling me
You're all I need

I'm on my way (hey)
I'm almost there
I look like hell, baby (hey), but I don't care
Yeah, this old highway is through with me
Yeah, there's a million winding roads
But just one place I wanna be

So baby, leave the light on and let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider, it won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy, bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war

I'm on my way
Hey, hey
I'm on my way

So baby, leave the light on and let your hair down
I'm your midnight rider, it won't be long now
Been driving all night
So Katy, bar the door
Gonna hold you tight, so hold the phone
Gonna kiss you like I'm coming home from war (hey)

Just like I'm coming home from war
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
